We saw the Townsend's Solitaire in Kansas. It is gray all over with
small buffy wing bars and white eye rings. It was flitting in and around
a bush which overhung the water of the lake. That was in Cedar Bluff
State Park.  We found it skulking right along the shore around 10am
in early March of this year.

We had never seen one before, and our Townsend's Solitaire gave us a
great chance to look him up while he checked out those bushes. My kind
of bird.
