This is a female Eastern Towhee. I don't get to photograph a female towhee often so this was a surprise. There was two of them so even a bigger surprise.

We were walking on a trail at Stillwater Prairie Reserve when we heard the very distint call of a Eastern Towhee. We stopped to look for it, but just could not locate him. At some point I just looked up .. I mean stright up. There it was, right over our heads. Too funny.

Teresa took these photos of a male Eastern Towhee this week. There was two of them. They allowed her to get super close. Great photos!

I love seeing a Eastern Towhee. I noticed that on their web site, Cornell Labs describes them as a large sparrow. I guess I can see that but I have never seen a sparrow as protective of their space as the male towhee.
