[redcliffs] Varied Thrush

[kevin wheeler]

The Zion Christmas Bird Count on friday was great.  The total number of 
species was about 90, probably a high for the history of this count.  One 
highlight was a VARIED THRUSH observed at Springdale Pond at approximately 
11:30 by myself and Aaron Keller.  It perched up on a Russian olive briefly 
and allowed a good, if brief view.  I went to grab my camera, but the bird 
had flown by the time I got back.  We could not relocate the bird then or 
when we re-visited the area about 3:30, but there are a lot of American 
Robins in the area, and I imagine that he was associating with them.
