| Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater) standing on grassy ground. Its plumage is mottled brown, blending with the green grass. The bird's head appears slightly darker than its body, and it has a sharp, short beak. It is facing sideways with bright, alert eyes. The cowbird is often associated with open fields and edges of woodlands, where it feeds and breeds. Known for its brood parasitism, this species lays eggs in the nests of other birds, letting them raise their young. |
