Townsend's Solitaire - University of BC, BC        An uncommon winter visitor to these parts is a small slaty-grey thrush that usually lives in the mountains during breeding season. The small Robin-like bird flycatches when the weather is warm enough for insects but also eats some fruit and berries when the flying food is sparse. The favorite is the Juniper berry and both male and females will defend a winter territory with a good supply of these berries. This was taken in the fruit garden outside the forestry building at UBC.                  Michael W Klotz 2020 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
