Spotted Towhee, very common but generally hidden in brush.

Then shouldn't it be the Rarely Spotted Towhee? :)

You pose a rather interesting question Mr. Greg. Are the Towhees always spotted when they're spotted? Perhaps their coloration is sex, season or age affected. Thus they may not be spotted when spotted.
