[EBB Sightings] Varied Thrush at Redwood Regional Park

This morning, between 8:45 and around 10, I birded Redwood Regional,  
entering the park at Redwood Gate. I heard several Varied Thrush  
along the Stream Trail. The one bird I observed at relatively close  
range was perched on the limb of one of the bay trees on the side of  
the trail opposite the stream. The other birds I heard were along the  
same thickly forested hillside. The segment of trail I covered is  
from the first parking lot on the left after entering the park to the  
Fern Dell picnic area.

Other species, including Fox Sparrow and Hermit Thrush, were active  
and easily viewable. At the park office, a flock of Pine Siskin  
circled overhead.

Good birding,
