Curve-billed Thrasher
Toxostoma curvirostre
33.8636, -112.163
Field Notes
Description:
Mostly light brown passerine with pale throat and blotchy spots on belly. Note its rufous vent and undertail coverts.
Habitat:
Small muddy pond in desert.
Notes:
This bird was found dead. Why was this pretty young bird dead? My answer: irresponsible hunters. I noticed shotgun shells nearby. As as fellow hunter, I know that dove season opened the previous day. My advice to all hunters is that they would know what they're shooting at before they pull the trigger.
