The Curve-billed Thrasher habitat is in the arid lands, where it survives among the sparse vegetation and its hot temperatures. This mostly light-grey coloured bird can easily be overlooked and not seen. It is remarkable to see this thrasher singing and perched on a cactus, impervious to its thorns and so well adapted to its environment.

ABA - American Birding Association This site represents an organization that maintains official records of all birds species that have been proven to have been seen inside the perimeters of the North American Continent and the surrounding bodies of water. Regular revised versions are posted to keep the bird list current at all times. This is the list used by all serious birders over their lifetime. You may be aware of the movie called the "Big Year". It was with this list that all the competing birders used in an attempt to set a new record as to how many bird species that could be seen by an individual birder in one calendar year.
