My Visitor: Brown-headed Cowbird
Brown-headed Cowbird
The Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater) is a small obligate brood parasitic icterid of temperate to subtropical North America. They are permanent residents in the southern parts of their range; northern birds migrate to the southern United States and Mexico in winter, returning to their summer habitat around March or April.




Wow! These are wonderful images. Great bokeh makes great and clear impact.
Thank you very much! 🙂
Delightful bird gallery!!
Thanks Indira! 🙂
Beautiful shots, H.J.! I feel sorry for BHCOs, they can’t help it. If we could just get those buffalo herds going again, maybe they’d follow. 🙂
The stats always say the BHC are doing just fine! However, the bisons are always being culled…and Bald Eagles! Thank you Lisa. 🙂
