Mysterious

We have had lots of rain and look what washed up in the creek. The Bennie said it was a cow bone. There have not been cows on the land for years. What do you farm bloggers think? And this is my mystery bird.

If you enlarge this can you tell what this bird is called . There is so much poison ivy I can't get close. He is brown with spots on throat and light breast, a small bird. He is on the end of that large stick

Here he is on the ground at the bottom of tree.
