towhee

A wide range of eastern towhee nest success values have been reported.

In terms of weight, it is outbulked by several other towhee species.

The largest subspecies, about the size of the California Towhee.

The degree to which eastern towhee responds to succession is influenced by habitat.

The Eastern Towhee is a large and striking species of sparrow.

Compared to nests, adult towhee survival rates are high.

The Eastern Towhee is the same bird in terms of its size and structure but does not have white spots.

During 7 hours of observation, the biologists saw one collision between a rufous-sided towhee and a web.

Towhee remained on active duty with the Atlantic Fleet through 1953.

It was a large member of the genus and closely related to the Eastern Towhee.

The call may be harsher and more varied than for the Eastern Towhee.

But then, in pursuit of the towhee, he crossed the fresh trail of a rabbit.

The path passed a pond where sparrows, blackbirds and towhee were spotted.

In a Pennsylvania woodlot observed between 1962 and 1967, an eastern towhee returned to the site for 4 consecutive years.

Eastern towhee abundance has been shown to peak at different times in different habitats.

The towhee feeds on the ground or in low scrub rather than in the tree canopy.

The western Spotted Towhee has white spots on its primary and secondary feathers.

Many studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between eastern towhee abundance and understory density.

Several literature reviews note the predominance of eastern towhee nests below 5 feet (1.5 m).

In a South Carolina old field 5 of 19 eastern towhee nests were parasitized.

When he spotted a towhee scratching in the leaves, he crept toward it, silent and quick.

On Sanibel Island, 1 of the 5 eastern towhee nests observed was successful.

Eastern Towhee is found in the underbrush.

Negative correlations between eastern towhee abundance and various measurements of overstory density have been found in several studies.

In a Pennsylvania study site, only 2 of 36 nests were parasitized and both produced eastern towhee fledglings.
