Yesterday I found a dead hermit thrush on the road near my home.? Beside it was a dead varied thrush.? I suspect they were both killed by my neighbor?s cats.? Earlier this winter I saw a hermit thrush at my feeding station.? A varied thrush chased it away and I didn?t see it again until I found the dead one yesterday.? I have never seen a hermit thrush in my home area before this year.?
Darn the people who have outdoor cats.? So far that I know of, they killed three varied thrushes, 1 downy woodpecker and the hermit thrush.? The cats don?t come to my feeding area because I throw water on them when I see them but they do go to the gully in my back yard.?
