Clay-colored

Just back from Texas, so lots of photos to go through. This one’s a Clay-colored Thrush (formerly Robin) at Santa Ana NWR and might be the dullest-looking bird possible.

  1. He might not be flashy but according to my Kaufman field guide it is a “very scarce resident in extreme southern Texas”. You were lucky to get such a great photo!

    That I was. Working on that day’s writeup now, but after seeing that one, I came across a flock of about 5, which was very cool colorful or not.

    Another bird that we missed at our LRGV trip. It may be dull-colored…but I am still envious. :-)

    Wow. Great find!!! I’m heading off to Texas in a few weeks, but I will be in the north, up by Houston. Nothing exotic for me. I have to get to south Texas.
