Was that a laden crow or an un-laden crow....and does it matter if it was an African Crow or a European Crow?

Greetings!
Sister Marty forwarded this picture of the Brown Thrasher visiting cracked corn at a feeder at the College of Mt St Joe. Apparently this bird has been present for at least a week. It was last seen yesterday 24Jan2008---I think the picture is from the 23rd.

Also, in Ornithology class this morning, we visited feeders at Hueston Woods and were treated to RB Nuthatch, 2 Fox Sparrows, and 1 female Purple Finch among 15 species present.
Acton is entirely frozen (and has been for most of the week) and I was pondering whether “our” Ross’s Goose is the one now hanging out in Richmond per Bill’s report.

Please forward me your end of the month Chili Challenge numbers in the next couple days—nice to have Victorious Egret back on this continent (sorry, Vietnamese birds are outside the 75 mile radius [although Deb would probably let you count them if she could count Ewing Bottoms!])

Cheers
Dave
