This guy has me perplexed. I've been watching him for a few days, deep in the thicket of our lilac bushes, and today he surfaced enough for a photo. The very last photo is of a bird I was assuming is the same one, that flew from that same area to the birdbath, but he looks more mature. The white chin throws me completely. I'd appreciate help on this one.

Thank you thank you thank you. This was making me crazy. After seeing your reply, I went outside to chase the "blackbirds" from the feeders, and I saw that pretty gray juvie with the white throat among the crashers. Can't stand not knowing what's what with my birdie pals, even when they're robbing the feeders!
