Friday Feathers
The Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater) is a glossy black bird that has a chocolate brown head and a pointed, sharp gray bill. This bird is a member of the blackbird family.
Lays eggs in the nests of other birds; incubation and raising of the young is done by the other birds.
The Cowbird's song can be heard
here.
