Curve-Billed Thrasher

The Curve-Billed Thrasher landed on the top of our motorhome at  the fairgrounds in Sonoita, singing DesertDale a love song as he was washing his hands.

The Curve-Billed Thrasher is the most familiar in the southwestern deserts.    They live in the Sonoran desert, dry brushy county mainly in the lowlands.  They feed on a variety of insects and their larvae.    They forages mostly on the ground, using their its heavy curved bill to dig in the soil.
The male defends its territory by singing.
The female 3 eggs.  both parents incubate the eggs, 12 to 15 days.  Both parents feed the young.

Enjoy.  Kitfoxgal
