Two years ago the city built a greenway next to the downtown park and flushed out the brown thrasher I photoed that year.
I've been looking for it ever since.

This afternoon it showed up again, less than 100 yards from its old home. I really like these birds.

Very very nice shots! I would love to shoot one of these. Only time I see them is when they flash across the road in front of me! Great job!

Wow, what a wonderful thrasher series, Joe. Sharp, crisp and nice contrast images. You've captured his attitude in #1. The streaking on his chest is really beautiful.
Well done my friend!
