Good morning students, this weeks bird is one of my favorite Northwest birds. In fact, I think it should be the Oregon State Bird. Our current state bird, (do you know what it is?) is shared by five other states and I think we should have our own unique bird. This bird would be well qualified because it is only found in the US in very northern California, Oregon, and Washington. Most of their nesting is done in Canada and Alaska but I do believe they also nest at higher elevations in Oregon and Washington. They can be found fairly easily in Deschutes County in winter. They are related to Bluebirds and Robins. (big hint) Some of you may already know what it is but maybe not, they don't come to feeders that much because like all thrushes, they eat worms and insects in the summer and fruit in the winter. A good place to look for them is in decorative Crab Apple trees, or Mountain Ashe. Good luck and happy birding.
