I've had an abundance of Varied Thrushes this year. At least 8 in my
yard at once compared to only a few last year. Anybody else notice a
lot of thrushes this year? I wonder if they just bring the whole family
back for the winter after successfully raising a brood.

Also, I've had zero Pine Siskins this winter. Last year there were at
least a million of them.

One Last Note: the potentially first Violet Green Swallow showed up in
North Bend today.
