Dear Tweeters,
Yesterday the first flock of Brown-headed Cowbirds of
the year turned up at Cockreham Island, near the west
pond. This is in Skagit County.
One male was so different that I took him for a
Yellow-headed Blackbird at first. He was the exact
same size as the other cowbirds, and his plumage
identical, except on the head. The head was a
beautiful golden-buffy color! Is this a variation
other Tweeters have noticed?
Yours truly,
Gary Bletsch
