This is one of the commonest birds in the mountains during summer. 
It is very familiar in its ways and easily approached. Seated ona 
low branch of a tree or shrub, with its head on one side, it eyes you 
curiously, all the while uttering a low, guttural, chuckling note. 
This bird is often the only one seen on some of the higher passes. 
Young of the year resemble the female.
