Curved Bill Thrasher

Every year around mid-April, I’d take pictures of a Curved Bill Thrasher that had a nest in cactus growing along the sidewalk. This year they trimmed the cactus back, removing the nesting area. The bird is still in the neighborhood, and my picture for 05/07 is a Curved Bill Thrasher giving me a hard look as I walked past it.
