for my audobon society readers...

Can any of you folks out there identify this bird?


(as seen on the steps of the new house, during Sunday's drizzle)



I've looked through my local bird guides, and I can't figure it out!

She looked like some sort of grouse or something. Whatever she is, she was one very round bird, I tell ya'...getting ready to drop some eggs, maybe?? She actually looked like one of the Angry Birds, now that I think about it...hahahaha.



San Francisco Bay Area (North), we are.
Any ideas?

My guess is a fluffed out Towhee.
