Rare glimpse of varied thrush
My old camera sits in a drawer by my desk, just in case something lands in the birdbath. I had forgotten how long it was since I looked to see what it held. This pair of varied thrushes showed up just beyond the garden a month ago. I haven't seen them since.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!

What a fortunate capture, yes to female v male
ReplyDeleteI love the sounds they make, lonesome quiet plaintive
Love seeing these pics! When we lived in Port Townsend, WA we saw Varied Thrush pretty often. Now that we are in the Sierra foothills, I've only seen one once. They are such beautiful birds.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots - we see them quite rarely down here too. Your lawn looks like mine - a bit of everything - but it makes for very happy birds.
