ID Notes ⁵

The Brown-headed Cowbird, Molothrus ater, is a species of blackbird. They have a relatively large head and short tail compared with other blackbirds. Their bill is short and thick - more similar in shape to the bill of a finch. Males have a glossy black body and brown head, but often appear uniformly black in poor lighting. Females are a duller brown all over, with slightly lighter color on the head and underparts, and fine streaking on the belly.
