Varied thrushes are in the same family as robins, another singer of great ability, but the varied has a song like it came from a flute &#8211; as if Pan is out there drawing you to him with a tempting tune not yet played. There are other, lesser little notes you can hear if close enough, but it&#8217;s that single loud note that gets me every time. We hear them singing just at dusk in our patch of forest, and see them coming to the feeder near our pond. They&#8217;re what birds should look like, colorful and yet blending in with the forest bark and dark shadows. Once they land in the duff, they seem to just disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here it is matted and framed, definitely not invisible.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/2020\/12\/varied-thrush-portrait\/2020-12-19-varied-thrush-framed-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"861\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed-861x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11897\" srcset=\"https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed-861x1024.jpg 861w, https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed-252x300.jpg 252w, https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed-768x914.jpg 768w, https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed-1291x1536.jpg 1291w, https:\/\/larryeifert.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-12-19-Varied-Thrush-framed.jpg 1296w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 861px) 100vw, 861px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Thanks for reading this week.
