Ovenbirds - The Walking Warblers


Mini-Documentary. The Ovenbird looks so much like a thrush that John James Audubon called it the “Golden Crowned Thrush” in Birds of America. This is the second time I've captured this bird foraging on the forest floor in classic fashion – the ovenbird walks in an exaggerated fashion as it looks for bugs to eat - it doesn't hop like most songbirds. I think the Ovenbirds are living and breeding in the dense forest/jungle behind the Florida backyard although range maps indicate it isn't supposed to breed here they showed up throughout the summer on the trail cameras walking and foraging. I'll pay closer attention next year. They are fascinating birds and while some call them plain I think they are quite stunning and unique warblers.
