I observed the Varied Thrush from 9:00 - 9:15AM this morning at the site =
below.  It fed on the ground under the feeders.  When it left, it flew =
to the blue spruce tree 40 yards to the north on Edgcumbe, which is also =
near a number of loaded berry trees.

  I was fortunate enough to see the varied thrush just a short time ago, =

  at about 2:45, at the Edgecumbe and Eleanor site. It is truly a lovely =

  creature--and a lifer for me.

  The homeowner had introduced herself to me a couple of days ago, and =
is=20
  most gracious about having folks park beside her yard. Since it's an=20
  unfenced yard on an inclined street, one can park near the SE corner=20
  (her property) of the intersection, and have a nice view of the feeder =

  area in her backyard, while remaining discreetly in the car. I've=20
  brought her some mealworms, grapes, and dried cherries to feed, and =
plan=20
  to bring more. The bird is surely "making the rounds" in this=20
  well-appointed neighborhood because as she says, he looks healthy and=20
  well-fed.

  She said he's appearing regularly for short forays. If everyone uses=20
  restraint about driving-speed, parking places, and duration, many =
people=20
  should be able to see the bird, without disturbing the neighborhood.

  Good luck--Linda Whyte
