Hello Cobirds,

 

We have had a male Varied Thrush at our feeders since Monday 12/10/12. Our address is 17355 County Road 96, Conifer. County Road 96 is also known as Platte River Road. Our cabin sits across the road and north of the North fork of the Platte River. The Varied Thrush feeds from a seed tray hanging in a tree nearest our cabin and flies in/out of a stand of scrub oak along our fence line and south of the yard feeders. The stand of scrub oak, along the fence line and our feeders are easily visible from Platte River Road and from the road leading uphill to our cabin. He was feeding on the tray again this morning (Thursday) at 7am. He has continued to come to the feed tray off/on during the day. He has not been seen at the other feeders in the yard….only the tray feeder hanging in the tree.

 

Directions: Highway 285 to Conifer, south on Foxton Road to Platte River Road, left on Platte River Road 3.9 miles to drive way. At 3.8 miles you will see our cabin and yard feeders up the hill on your left. You will find room to park along Platte River Road or on the drive way up to our cabin. My day phone is 303-302-6125 and home number after 1pm is 303-838-0239.
