Grey
Shrike-thrush
-
We have at least two sets of Grey Shrike-thrush on the property.
-
The closest pair recently had three babies, but unfortuantely
one died in the nest. The other two are still going strong.
-
They thrush have several types of call, and all are very
beautiful.
-
They have become very friendly, often eating out of our hands.
(They've tamed us well, coming to the apple/nectarine tree and calling
for us to feed them). One of the young ones from a few years back
was especially tame/demanding. She would hop around your feet when digging
in the garden, getting in the way while looking for grubs.
