Field Notes

Description:

A drab colored bird with a brown back, light belly, and a darker crown on top of the head. There are both immatures and adults in this series.

Habitat:

Grassland with small shrubs and very few trees. This family of 5 was all hanging out as soon as I got to a spot to look for them, made it really easy for me!
