And then LO AND BEHOLD... the towhees are back!!! At least one is anyway. I always get these in late winter and early spring and then they leave. I have never gotten a picture of them because they don't come to my feeders but prefer to ground feed. They seem shy too and dart out for a snack and then hide under my huge overgrown pine tree. But today one was a little way up on a branch close enough to get some so-so pictures. But I'm thrilled anyway.

By the way... this is the very rare and little known Balloon Animal Towhee
