Identifying Backyard Birds I Live In El Paso Texas, The Desert Southwest. Can You Help Me Identify A Bird I Am Seeing In My Backyard?

I live in El Paso Texas, the desert southwest. Can you help me identify a bird I am seeing in my backyard? - identifying backyard birds

This bird is the size of mockingbirds. It is a brown or gray dust everywhere. Long, pointed beak and yellow eyes. Excavated in search of larvae in my garden. I can see (who plays head ****** aside before digging!) If a rule with some errors. Any help out there?
