Brown Thrasher

There was a Brown Thrasher (Toxostoma rufum) in the yard this morning, which is unusual for us.

Curved bill, long tail, reddish brown above, light below, about the size of a Blue Jay.

It was feeding on the ground, scattering debris with its bill as it looked for insects.

BirdsofOklahoma.net has a good picture here.
