It now qualifies as a possible nester under the MBBA program. I saw it this afternoon near the backyard platform feeder but it scurried off as soon as it knew it was being noticed. Although the Brown Thrasher is very aggressive in defence of its nest it becomes quite the recluse during nesting time. Some theorize that the thrasher sings continuously during its nesting period, others think it stops altogether when it begins nesting. Take your pick!
