Thanks - female cowbird it is. It just looked more charcoal gray than brown on the snow.

Subject: Can anyone ID this bird? - A few photos to provide size comparison.
Hi - We've not been able to find this bird in our guides. It tends to eat seeds on the ground. I've seen it once on a tree limb just sitting.
Thanks in advance - Survive the snow and cold!
