Subspecies: ? Same comment as to 3248: Female of the pale western type. Faint iridescent cast to wing, dark brown-red eye and dark streaking on the back are characteristic, plus of course the bull-necked appearance compared to Brown-headed. |

2019-12-03 Ciudad Guzmán (jal), Mexico
Subspecies: ? Dark brown bird indicates a female of the eastern type. But the eye looks rather dull, why I would like to speculate whether it could also be a young male. Didn't pay attention to it in relaxed mode. |

2020-01-04 Estero Escobampa (Mazatlán), Mexico
Subspecies: ? Female. Looks very pale with an even paler throat which almost makes it look like a Brown-headed Cowbird, but the amber colored eye is to too bright for that species. |

2020-01-04 Estero Escobampa (Mazatlán), Mexico
Subspecies: ? Female. Pale as the Mexican birds normally are. The pale amber iris is a character that separates it from Brown-headed Cowbird as does the bushy neck, seen best in photo 2. |
