Bird Patch - Eastern Towhee (#63 of collection)

No. 63 of the Bird Collective bird patch collection. Collect them all!

These bulky and boldly-patterned sparrows prefer undergrowth habitat and can often be heard scratching away at the leaf litter. In the breeding season, the males usually shed their furtiveness and sing from a conspicuous perch. The females (pictured here) build their cup nests on the ground or close to it in shrubs. Their name comes from one of their most familiar calls: a two-part, rising “towhee.”

Embroidered bird patch with iron-on backing. Adhesive is temporary. For durability, we recommend sewing or using a permanent, flexible fabric glue.

Dimensions: 1.25" wide x 2.55" tall
