I had a Brown Thrasher at my feeders yesterday. It seems early and I've also never seen one by the feeders ever. He was on the ground, feeding amongst the cardinals, sparrows and starlings. Other birds seen (the "usual suspects"): Mourning Dove (4); Red-bellied Woodpecker (1); Downy WP (1); Blue Jay (3); Carolina Chickadee (1); Titmouse (1); White-breasted Nuthatch (1); Carolina Wren (3); E. Starling (10); Song Sparrow (1); White-throated Sparrow (3); Dark-eyed Junco (2); N Cardinal (6); House Finch (3); American Goldfinch (4); House Sparrow (10) Suellen Fortine Landen, Deerfield Twp., Warren County _________________________________________________________________ Helping your favorite cause is as easy as instant messaging.
