For last week's quiz we had a pair of Gadwalls, just about the only ducks left on the pond at the Audubon Sabal Palm Sanctuary near Brownsville (a pair of Ruddy Ducks were there, too). A week ago Spring was just over the horizon and the other ducks had apparently already gone "del Norte" (to the North).
For this week we move to dry land with a bird usually found only in the southwest. Good luck and have fun!
I believe it's a Bronzed Cowbird.
