(1) Subsequent to my bluebird posting of yesterday, my nephew saw a
catbird in the same bush (a burning bush; the berries are attracting lots of
birds) on Wyman Road, south of Yarmouth. He also mentioned seeing a thrush,
but not well enough to identify to species. He speculated that it might be
a Swainson's.
(2) Well, the thrush just returned to the same bush. I didn't get an
ideal look at it, but dis have various views. Isn't a Swainson's because
there is no obvious eye-ring. I was about to conclude grey-cheeked, but it
turned, and there looked to be an indistinct reddish tinge to the tail.
Makes me suspect a Bicknell's. Strongly.
Don't think it's a hermit; colouring didn't look right and it didn't flick
its tail.
(3) On the way into town about 12:45, as I was approaching the golf
course (of tundra bean goose fame) on Main Street, a large- crow-sized
accipiter clew over, flapping slower than a sharp-shin. Reddish tinge on
the belly, flap behaviour, size, and rounded tail makes me sure it was a
Cooper's.
