I rarely see Towhees this far above ground! They are usually on or near to the ground. They run as well as they fly through the brambles.
Although they look very similar, the images posted here are of five different individuals.

A beautifully done set Tim! They are a winter visitor in my yard and I agree I have never seen them in trees! Was it the Spotted Towhee that was called the Rufous-sided Towhee back in the 60's ?
These ar very nice...great detail.

Fantastic set !!! Timothy
Beautiful shots. When I see them in trees, they have often been singing I wonder if they are looking for a mate.
All About Birds, says “ Behavior
Spotted Towhees hop over the ground beneath dense tangles of shrubs, scratching in leaf litter for food. They also climb into lower branches to search for insects and fruits, or to deliver their quick, buzzy song. Towhees can fly long distances, but more often make short, slow flights between patches of cover.”
But they have been over my 6 foot high head, calling.
Magnificent captures, Tim!!
Tim, these are great. The sharpness and detail are phenomenal.
These are beautiful images. I love the backgrounds.
