| From this vantage point I have photographed the scrub jay, mourning dove, California thrasher, and California towhee at the birdbath. |
| Stanford's roster included a golden eagle, a northern harrier, and a California thrasher, plus a host of sparrows. |
| The crissal thrasher is mostly a uniform grayish brown, with a long, dark tail and a very long, decurved bill. |
| While his guitar used to sound like an impending revolution, his talents now seem comparable to any average American rock string thrasher. |
| Most versatile of all is the brown thrasher, a singer's singer, which knows as many as 2,000 songs. |
| I can suggest no other explanation than that he must have learned it from the brown thrasher. |
