Some backyard birding today revealed a lone Brown Thrasher foraging for insects in the large open space behind my house. Quickly glancing at the feeders while passing by the window, I noticed something different far out back. I haven't seen one in suburbia in over 6 years. While it may be common for many, I thought I'd post about it. If anyone lives in the Ronkonkoma area, north of Sachem HS, keep a lookout for the Thrasher.
