I'm guessing by the other bird photos you have on Flickr (inidgo bunting, ruby-throated hummingbird) that you live somewhere in the Eastern US. That's Carolina Wren territory. The eye stripe narrows it down to either Bewick's or Carolina, but only Carolina Wrens have buffy underparts and completely brown tails. Looks like you've got yourself a Carolina Wren. Enjoy!

P.S. This is not a thrasher. The tail is shorter than the body and the eye stripe is too strong. It's a wren.

It's not a thrasher at all.
Thrashers have a much longer, boat shaped tail and Brown Thrashers at least have speckling on their breast and no eye stripe at all.

It definitely looks like a Carolina Wren to me.

BTW that's a fabulous looking Indigo Bunting!! I live in Florida and I've never seen one.. so that's great.

ought to that's this: Tricolored Heron - as quickly as regularly occurring by way of fact the Louisiana Heron, this chicken is frequently puzzled with the little blue heron till it turns to stand you. A white stripe down its throat and chest, widening to hide its abdomen, differentiates this chicken. The tricolored heron has a white acceptable notch of feathers for the duration of its breeding situations that feels like the hair of Dennis the danger, status up and not understanding which thank you to lie down. I additionally secure a picture of a titmouse as nicely as a internet site that helps you to hunt applying countless aspects it extremely is a help. good success!

That is a CAROLINA WREN. I have them at my house every spring and summer. Fascinating birds. Very similar to a thrasher. They make the male put together 5 nests and then they choose the one they want to lay eggs in. Would be nice to have a hubby build 5 houses, then choose the one you want to live in. Hahahaha!
They build in very small places, tiny birdhouses, a sack of nails in the barn, in a wreath on your door, in a fern hanging on your porch. any where that might be in out of the rain.
Here ya go.

A Thrasher, maybe a non typical Sage Thrasher or Brown Thrasher. Maybe a hybrid.

It looks to me like it is some type of thrasher. I'd hazard a guess at a brown thrasher, but I could be wrong. I'm out of town so I do not have access to my 20 identification books.

It sould also be a type of thrush. But I'd say it were a brown thrasher.
