This Eastern Towhee is a beautiful bird – note the red eyes and the white tail feathers on its fanned out tail. The rusty sides are close to the color of a Robin’s breast so you have to look closely when you see that color to know which bird it is on. Its name is derived from its call – “Tow-wheeee”.

Sharp and beautifully detailed shot Mike. I agree, it’s a beautiful bird.
Cool looking bird!
Lovely shot with his tail fanned out!
