They will soon migrate. The bug eaters leave us as the bugs disappear. They eat berries and bugs, both of which are fast disappearing.
One landed on the water fountain, once-upon-a-time.
We've got hermit thrushes, as well.
We've still got robins. They may or may not migrate. One year we had a baker's dozen overwinter. It depends upon the severity of the winter.
About 20 seconds in, she hears something and momma stand up to see. It was so funny. You can see the eyes in the background. This is why they survive with coyotes in the forest. Their major threat is truly cars. They move across the highway in our large habitat.

One is no longer surprised to find American Robins in the winter. More and more they seem to find sheltered ravines and exploit microclimates to secure food. There are a couple of spots around here where their presence throughout the winter is almost a certainty.
Hello, Jenn
Great sighting of the Thrush and the cute Robins. Will I am driving at night I usually look for the eyes, usually they are deer eyes. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend! PS, thanks for leaving me a comment.

always a joy to share a little time with the birds! YAM xx
Strange as it may seem, I've seen Swainson's Thrush in both Canada and England. It's a cracker.
Hermit thrush is our VT state bird. I love their song.
The Robins are always here by the numbers around Christmas! Love your photos and videos. Enjoy your weekend!
The raccoons are a delight to see.
...and your robins are thrushes too.
Wonderful photos of our feathered friends and great captures on the trail cam ^_^
Happy Day to You,
