Notes:

While walking in the park across from where I work, I started to video what I believed was just a young Brown Thrasher thrashing about amongst the leaves. I was totally surprised when the bird turned the other direction and I noticed this face on the side of it. At first I had thought that he had been attacked and injured, but upon closer inspection-noted that was not the case at all. He was acting perfectly normal for a thrasher, and as you can the other side of him was normal with the exception of the bump on the top beak. I hope to be adding the video later, as not sure if I have it here at work.
