Spotted Towhee: moving around, and staying put

The Spotted Towhee is one of our favorite birds, all the more so because we see it here in California year-round. But that doesn't mean that it doesn't migrate in the spring. There's actually a great deal of local movement with this species (moving from valley to valley, changing altitudes, etc.) Although some stay right where they are. Either way, we're happy to have them. (photo by Gary Kramer/USFWS)
