Unfortunately no. We were at the site within a couple of hours of the report but the thrush never re-appeared. The lady who reported it is a pro. photographer and managed asingle picture of the bird.Katy Penland said:Hey, Dan, did you know about or get to see the Varied Thrush that was the first-ever reported on PEI, photo'd in January? I was entering my Project FeederWatch data and was looking at the Rare Bird reports and saw it. Here's the URL, second photo from the bottom of that page:

Nice list, especially the Hummingbirds. Those aren't my Goldfinches. They've been here all winter, could be Tammie's though.chazzhess said:I'm going to cheat a little and put in a couple of migratory birds I've seen on my feeders in the past week. The two one-time viewings include a prothonotary warbler and ruby-throated hummingbird. 50+ goldfinches (I'm feeding them for my northern friends who get the benefit of them in their full glory), mourning doves, tufted titmouse, Carolina wren, Carolina chickadee, red-bellied woodpecker, blue jay, northern cardinal and white-throated sparrow.

The eagles are definitely on the move so you may not have long to wait.Tammie said:Good one, Neil... I have to wait for the snow to melt (quite) a bit more before they show up here. I'm hoping to see an eagle soon tho'.
