| The Green-tailed Towhee (Pipilo chlorurus) breeds across much of the Rocky Mountain region of the United States and winters in the desert southwest and Mexico. The shot of the singing male shown here was taken at the Great Sand Dunes National Monument in Saguache Co., Colorado, in June, 2001, with a Canon EOS 3 and EF 600mm F/4 L lens and 1.4X extender on Fuji Velvia. The shot at right shows a wintering bird in Jeff Davis Co., Texas, in December, 1995. That shot was taken with a Canon T-90 and Sigma 500mm F/4.5 lens and 1.4X extender on Fuji Sensia. |  |
