Varied Thrush in Dakota County
2012-01-18

'Rare Regular' in Minnesota

The Varied Trush being seen at 17774 Blackbird Trail in Hastings, Dakota County was very accommodating this morning in and around the crab apple tree posing for lenghty looks. The homeowner graciously invited birders to look from his porch and the bird abandoned its characteristic secretive nature and sat out in the open after eating some crab apples.
