20121006 114 SERIES - Hermit Thruswh3.jpg

My Backyard

Four images, four views of Hermit Thrushes.

"Hot off the press", so to speak. A small flock of these Thrushes have been visiting my yard for a few days now. This was the first day that I was Able to get some decent shots of a few of them.

In addition to the Thrushes, there were Song Sparrows, White-crowned Sparrows, Dark-eyed Juncos, N Cardinals, W-b Nuthatches, Purple Finches and a large flock of Pine Siskins that came for a visit.

I have a fondness for thrushes, they are beautiful in their plain plumage and their songs are magical. Your excellent photos of the hermit thrush shows exactly how beautiful they can be. Astonishingly good images with the detail and clarity. Your yard certainly is a paradise for birds. I've had some of the species you mention, but no thrushes or siskins :-(
