Toxostoma | | Thrashers are a New World group of passerine birds related to mockingbirds and New World catbirds. Their common name describes the behaviour of these birds when searching for food on the ground: they use their long bills to "thrash" through dirt or dead leaves. All of these birds eat insects and several species also eat berries. Genus Margarops Genus Oreoscoptes Genus Ramphocinclus Genus Toxostoma * Brown Thrasher Toxostoma rufum
