ANSWER TO SUNDAY QUIZ

CAN YOU ID THIS BIRD?

ANSWER:  Brown -headed Cowbird (Molting stage)

The brown-headed cowbird (Molothrus ater) is a small 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.
