Perhaps it was a Hermit thrush. I did not hear it vocalize. Seemed the wood thrush coloring though small. Also had eastern phoebe perch in front of nature center. Lisa Garrett

> Welcome Lisa and thanks for the report. FYI: Wood Thrush would be quite unusual at this time of year. (The Maryland yellow book early date for migrants is April 11� though Mike Hudson did find one over-wintering in Baltimore earlier this year). Hermit Thrush is the default spot-breasted thrush in March.
