California Towhee (Sam Miller)

FREMONT, CA — You know that a wild animal or bird is a creature of habit when people name them. This bird has earned a name from Sam Miller in Fremont. He writes, "This is Ozzie. He comes to take a bath in the water dish in my yard. He is a California Towhee."

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your photo, Sam. And now we can all identify some of the little brown birds that frequent our backyards!
