Which of the following is not an adaptation of California thrashers to life in the chaparral biome?

California thrashers are active during the day, so nocturnal activity is not one of their adaptations. Their long, curved beaks help them scratch through leaf litter for food, and they commonly forage by walking on the ground rather than flying. Nesting in late March is also consistent with their breeding behavior.
