Here is a sign of spring (I Guess) I have never seen before :) I came home from work last night 3-20, and saw this stranger under my bird feeder. A little research told me it was a Varied Thrush, usually native to the far west coast of US and Canada, but have been spotted half a dozen times in Minnesota, but reports of being seen to the east coast are coming in! I live north of Brainerd and south west of Nisswa, thought you would be interested in seeing this John. Thanks for the great show(s) Thanks, Gary Ogren You can check out John Latimer's Phenology Show, and listen to archived episodes at KAXE.org.
