Jim in Wolfville. ...... Hi Jim, yes, we saw that this morning, someone thought a tree top bird = was the thrush. It was a starling. The thrush, in the sunlight, as I = have seen it, is just popping with colour. The blue is something! I = haven't seen the bird today. There was a lot of jay and starling = activity about 8:30-9 am. Only a couple Robins beside 'ours'. It may = well be travelling with Robins, I don't know. This whole area is perfect = so if it is still here, there is a lot of ground to cover. People have been watching for him. There is someone here right now. This = is the time of day we saw it and got the photos and when two others saw = it another day.=20 I haven't had a lot of time to watch today. It is so mild and sunny, = everything is thawed so it can feed/drink where it wants, we have no = snow. Lots of mud though. We are avoiding yard work as much as possible = but we have stuff needs doing. Had a swamp sparrow yesterday. I am 99% = sure but we have had tree sparrows too so there is always a chance I = might have it wrong.
