Appearance
At about 12 in and nearly 85 g, the California thrasher is the largest species of mimid. It is generally brown, with buffy underparts and undertail. It has a dark cheek pattern and eye-line, and unlike most thrashers, has dark eyes. The California thrasher eats insects and small invertebrates.
Behavior
Like most thrashers, it rarely flies in the open, preferring to keep hidden in dense brush. Therefore, while it is common throughout much of its range, it is rarely seen.References:
