Bird Watching Diary - 20160331

Today I finally produced a half way decent video of a Brown Thrasher.  I don't know how long they will be in the vicinity.  The Audubon web site states they are only in my area during breeding season. https://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/brown-thrasher

The following text is an excerpt from the website: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Brown_Thrasher/lifehistory "It can be tricky to glimpse a Brown Thrasher in a tangled mass of shrubbery, and once you do you may wonder how such a boldly patterned, gangly bird could stay so hidden. Brown Thrashers wear a somewhat severe expression thanks to their heavy, slightly downcurved bill and staring yellow eyes, and they are the only thrasher species east of Texas. Brown Thrashers are exuberant singers, with one of the largest repertoires of any North American songbird." end excerpt

I  also compiled 2 videos of a Robin.  One my favorite birds.  Probably because they have become used to me observing them.  (See Videos Below)
