About These Birds

Black Catbird

The Black Catbird is a striking, entirely glossy blue-black bird of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico and Belize, with a short, slender bill and a melodious song. It inhabits dense lowland tropical forests and forest edges, including coastal thickets and mangroves. It feeds on small fruits, berries, and insects, foraging in the forest understory and mid-story.

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.
