Veery

Veery, High Island, Texas, May 2008. Probably my favourite of this group. I think its big eye looks a bit out of place on such a small bird.

Swainson's Thrush

Swainson's Thrush, High Island, Texas, May 2008. Absolute cuties.

Gray-cheeked Thrush

Gray-cheeked Thrush, High Island, Texas, May 2008. So, it's an American bird, with an American bird name, so I guess I spell it 'Gray' rather than 'Grey'?

Wood Thrush

Wood Thrush, High Island, Texas, May 2008. The 'ginger nut' of the North America thrushes!

Rose-breasted Grosbeak




Male Rose-breasted Grosbeak, High Island, Texas, May 2008. Very confiding birds and often in flocks of up to ten.

Scarlet Tanager

Scarlet Tanager, High Island, Texas, May 2008. When you see these things in the field you can understand where they get their name - these things are BRIGHT!
