I saw this bird only for a brief time from a distance and I could not definitively settle its ID and was not able to refind it to get a closer look.  I saw a male Cowbird nearby so a part of me thinks that's a female cowbird in the picture.  But it also looks vaguely like something else...Rusty Blackbird maybe?

Not completely inconsitent with Rusty Blackbird, but I wouldn't say anything definite from that picture.
