Brown Thrasher, January 17, 2018

ABC Wednesday, Wild Bird Wednesday, and Wednesday Around The World
B is for Brown Thrasher

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, December 27, 2017
Brown Thrashers, Toxostoma rufum, are usually seen foraging for insects on the ground, but this one has been a frequent visitor to my suet feeder since the weather has been so cold.

Brown Thrashers live in the eastern and central parts of North America. Some birds are year-round residents of the southeastern United States; others migrate as far north as southern Canada in the Spring to nest and raise their young.

Have a wonderful day!

  3. Interesting! I've never seen a brown thrasher at my suet feeder, but mine hangs from a hook in the yard. I think that may be the difference since yours is in a tree where it's more stable.
    Have a great week!

  7. I've always loved brown thrashers! I think maybe that's because it's one of the first six to eight birds I learned to identify!
