Bird On Cattail

Published:

Description

bird on a cattail? He was so intent on eating these that he even let me get within a few feet of him and stayed on the plant.

-if anyone can ID the bird and even the plant, plz let me know, ty. i don't know if it's a sparrow, grosbeak or maybe a female housefinch.

Thanks to Doug which looks to have given the correct ID - Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) or Cattail millet (Pennisetum americanum) .

Is it by water?  Do you have a photo of the plant?  State?
