Hello all,

Does anyone have any suggestions for getting Rufous-sided Towhee confirmed
for the atlas?  I have spent many hours in good towhee habitat (forest
with dense understory), with "drink your tee-ee-ee-a" and "fweep" calls
all around, but no success.  The males pop up into sight occasionally to
sing, but the females always seem to be down low and well-hidden.

Thanks,
Tim Ray
