Dickcissel

 

Dickcissels perch on stalks or shrubs to pluck seeds. They also walk or hop on the ground, foraging for seeds.


Adult males are grayish on the head with a yellow face and chest, crossed with a bold black V. The back is brown and gray, with warm reddish-brown shoulders.


In all seasons Dickcissels are most commonly found in tall grasslands, including prairies, hayfields, lightly grazed pastures, and roadsides. Cornell All About Birds
