They don't get much plainer than this.
The number of bird species in the world is presently estimated to be somewhere between 10,000 and 11,000, although many reputable sources now say that there could be as many as 18,000! However many species there are, I'll go out on a limb and state that I believe the female Brown-headed Cowbird in my southern Ontario backyard (see feeder photo above) just has to be one of the top ten plainest looking birds in the world. Any challengers?
Please comment if you wish.

I always felt the female Gadwalls were never given much thought when they were handing out plumage.
