Scrub and Sagebrush
Accidental bird for coastal California. This was spotted in Coyote Hills known for attracting migrants, transient and vagrantbirds. This was spotted today being chased by a Mockingbird. For birders today this was not a shy bird in the open eating insects but shy when it was trying to feed on berries.
