About These Birds
Bendire's Thrasher
Bendire's Thrasher is a vulnerable ground-foraging bird of desert scrub and semi-arid habitat in the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. It has brown upperparts, lightly spotted buff underparts, and a relatively straight, medium-length bill compared to other thrashers. It feeds on insects, berries, and seeds, and has declined significantly due to habitat loss and overgrazing.
