Sage Thrasher (Oreoscoptes montanus)

I saw my first Sage Thrasher in my yard last January, didn't see another one until this picture was taken. He was really enjoying the last berries on a small bush in the backyard, haven't seen him since. Hopefully he'll come back to the yard again.

A lovely picture of this Sage Thrasher, great capture! I like these birds but do not see them all that often. Thanks for sharing.

Wow Lisa! A beautiful shot of this Thrasher and we sure don't see many of them here in the Gallery.

Very nice capture, Lisa - I don't think I've seen one of these in the Gallery before - thanks for sharing.
