On the move..

Fall migration.

I encountered a couple of Swainson's Thrushes (Catharus ustulatus) this morning on the back corner of the UCSC - Arboretum.  One, I never saw only hearing the call note coming from the Baccharis-pocked grassland adjacent to the north end of the arboretum.

However, this one popped up near the trail.  It didn't give much of a photo opportunity while eye-balling me.

Swainson's thrush, likely heading south.  Look again.  It is in there.
