Back on May 9, I thought I caught a brief glimpse of a female Towhee 
pecking at seeds under my feeder with a couple of RBG males and a host 
of White-Crowned sparrows.  The whole bunch flushed and I didn't see the 
possible female Towhee again, so I chalked it up to insufficient 
caffeine in the system early in the AM since I've not seen or heard a 
Towhee around these parts since I moved here 10 years ago now.

And then today, for the first time since the 9th, there it is again 
under the feeder and it is absolutely a female Towhee.  But I've had no 
sight of a male and no sound of its distinctive song, either.  She's 
been here almost 3 weeks now all by herself?
