l've not seen this kind in my yard before. I also saw a cardinal and I think a woodpecker but that was before I ran for my camera! I spent most of the day putting up Christmas decorations and decided to wait at least until tomorrow before I start posting those photos or it will be a long month indeed.
Yup, the GA State Bird. Brown Thrasher. Great birds, skittish. Saw one this summer who was getting bugs for the wee ones in a neighbor's yard. Never saw the nest, but saw where it was going. Heard they can be quite territorial, so I kept my distance!
@linnypinny@darylo@vstap@francoise@kwiksilver@deb60 Thanks so much for your kind words! I was actually inside and takiing this through a dirty kitchen window which is why it isn't very clear! He couldn't see me or it would have been an even worse shot or no shot at all as he flew away! Thanks for leting me know what it is though, Ann and Daryl! @olivetreeann@maggiemae
Our state bird...I see everyone has told you. They are hard to get pics of as they hide under bushes a lot....scurry out fast....and run back under the bush. Good job!
