[cobirds] Re: photo quiz

Well, I know it's not a Horned Lark... Looks like a Brown Headed Cowbird to  me.

Can anyone name this bird?  A parent brought this individual a green caterpillar to eat, photo taken on 29June2016 , location 15 miles west of Laporte (Larimer).  Hint: it is not a an albatross, shorebird or falcon (unless AOU or some other governing body decides otherwise in the next 10 minutes).

If you are one of the folks with whom I have already shared this photo and answer, please give the others a shot.  I will post a pic of the adult with caterpillar after the first right answer, or if and when it appears COBIRDS is stumped.  It matters not to me if you want to guess in front of the whole group or in private.  I may yard up wrong answers and share with the group, but will not identify who submitted the wrong answers.  I will, of course, give credit to the persons who guess correctly, particularly the first one.
