it's a wren

too small to be a thrasher or mockingbird, but may be too big to be a wren. Hard to tell from the photos. We just had a nest full of baby wrens hatch and fledge about 1-2 months ago on our back porch.

brown/rufus colored like a wren, tail sticks up like a wren, and the body shape is like a wren. Also, the way the baby in "perched" is more of a wren thing, leaning forward or standing on the side of something, where thrashers and mockingbirds stand up on top of stuff.
