I will add that I am certainly not used to seeing Bronzed Cowbirds being
attracted to the habitat where the subject bird was photographed, whereas it
looks very attractive to a Red-winged Blackbird. As I am sure you agree, we
don't identify birds based on what habitat they are found in, but Red-winged
Blackbirds are very common there.
