Birds of Kentucky: Eastern Towhee
2026-02-19 - Central Kentucky - Photo by Pen
All About Birds offers this advice for spotting Eastern Toehees: "Walk slowly along the edges of forests, thickets, and old fields. Listen carefully for the Eastern Towhee's scratchy chewink call, its bright song, or simply any rustling the bird makes in dry leaves. Then lower your eyes to ground level and scan the leaf litter, looking for a scratching towhee or the bright white corners of the bird flashing its tail at you." Comments | Permalink

Robert writes, "Another colorful place to visit in Death Valley National Park. It's a one-way, 9-mile drive that winds its way through scenes like this! I had stopped the car and headed towards the mountains to get a closer image, not realizing that just beyond the flat area where I was heading lies the road (unseen) that takes you right into the mountains...which we would later make our way, slowly, through."
