Eastern Towhee in Oregon? -

for over a week now there has been this bird that i have identified as an Eastern Towhee. It has struck me that it doesnt belong here in Oregon. there has only been one and hes been really enjoying himself outside my window. I am just confused on why he is here when he should be in the eastern states, from Texas to east.

The Rufous-sided or Spotted Towhee can be seen in British Columbia east to Maine and south to California, Louisiana, Florida and Guatemala during the breeding season. During winter, the birds move south from British Columbia, Nebraska, and southern New England.Your first encounter with a California Towhee may be prompted by a tireless knocking at your window or car mirror: these common backyard birds habitually challenge their reflections. But California Towhees are at heart birds of the tangled chaparral and other hot scrublands of California and Oregon. You��re as likely to hear their bright chip notes along a secluded trail as on your way out your front door. If you live in the Southwest, look for this bird��s twin, the Canyon Towhee.

You may find better luck asking this in Los Angeles :) Some very helpful people there...
