I often hear
Spotted Towhees, but getting a good shot of them is usually tough. They like to hide in the center of trees or, when on the ground, they scoot deep under bushes. I managed to get lucky one day last year and get these few shots.
Their red eyes are particularly striking.
I found this guy by listening for his call...
...it's one of the few that I have learned to identify by ear.
He gave me one last look at those crazy eyes and then he was gone.

it is always rewarding when you get shots of a difficult bird to photograph.
Super shots .. you did very well as it tried to hide!
Hello!:) It's a great looking bird, and good shots of him too!:)
