Lots of brown (Catharus) thrushes at Black Lake Park yesterday on a cold windy morning. I saw seven in the woods west of the parking lot, one in the woods northwest of the meadow, one at the meadow (beautiful colors there),
and one along the south walkway toward the creek. I presume most were Hermit Thrushes. A few may have been double-counts, but I don't think so. The only ones I identified were two Swainson's and a Gray-cheeked.
The other twelve bird species included a dozen Dark-eyed Juncos, a Yellow-rumped Warbler, and the usual suspects.
