Long-time MD birders:
Maryland Birdlife and American Birds published that an adult male
Varied Thrush was seen by about 20 MOS members at the feeders of Mr.
and Mrs. C. Ross Eck in Aberdeen between 5 and 12 Mar 1978. (To jog
your memory, this was later in the same winter after another male
bird had been seen at a feeder in Savage, MD in December 1977. This
December record has already been accepted.) The Aberdeen bird was
reported to have been photographed.
Mr. Eck and some other Harford County birders were contacted about
this sighting back in 1996, but no documentation turned up at that time.
If anyone happens to have photographs or field notes of the Aberdeen
bird ... or knows someone who might have documentation, please let me know!
Thanks!
Phil
