The thrush is still here. We have been observing it daily (and frequently) since 2/1. Alex Sundvall and his father got fair looks at it Sunday afternoon. Bob Williams was here for an hour or so yesterday morning and the bird put on a real performance. It sat facing us in full sunlight in a front yard small oak for several minutes, then moved to the driveway just off of our front patio to feed. Liz Harper came late in the afternoon and we got a couple of fleeting glimpses of the bird. It appeared to fly off into the distance with a gaggle of robins (or would that be a rubble of robins?). Liz did get another distant look on her way down our driveway, but we thought it might be gone for good. However, it appeared a couple of times this morning and has been feeding on the driveway near the house again.
Our driveway is 1/4 mile long and the bird cannot be seen from the road. Email me if you would like to set up a time to come for a look.
