I had to look on Google maps to see where that place was. Very peaceful remote! Great video. Glad to see the long-billed dowager, grebe, shrike, meadow Lark and fun to see the coyote. Thanks for adding the history of Fish Springs Pony Express Route and for making these great videos.
Good morning to you from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR. I searched GOOGLE for the Brown-headed Cowbird, and I notice that the FEMALE of this bird looks like the FEMALE of the Chinese Blackbird.
WOW ! I also searched for Cowbird and GOOGLE indicates that this species is an obligate brood parasite, laying its eggs in the nests of other species. The Genus was introduced by English naturalist WilliamSwainson in 1832 with the brown-headed cowbird as the type species.
