We had excellent views of a male Varied Thrush outside our front window @ 12:45 pm today eating the fruit on our ornamental pear tree. It was in the company of approximately 6 - 7 robins. We viewed it for approximately 10 minutes before it flew away. Returned for a brief visit @ 1:05 pm, this was its last appearance prior to this report. Location: 3 Corfield Dr (corner of Daimler & Corfield Dr. in Lackner Woods subdivision of Kitchener) Directions: Fairway Road east from King Street to Lackner Blvd - turn right on Lackner - turn left on Corfield Dr. (1st left) - follow Corfield to stop sign, house is on the left side at the corner.
