Swainson's Thrush in Hennepin County
0000-00-00

Common in Hennepin County in the Spring season

For a bird that overwinters in the Neotropical region, this is a pretty early arrival date. (This species doesn't typically arrive until the first week in May.) Seen in my yard and my neighbor's yard, both in Golden Valley. Bird seen 4/18 and 4/19; picture taken 4/19.
