Previously Near the TCAAP WVA, I saw a Brown Thrasher

Here is another shot from my adventures behind the fence near the TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area. A friend and I spent a while trying to get a shot of this brown thrasher near the gravel pit within the Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS). It was very difficult. It wouldn't come out from under the brush and flitted quickly between trees.

This is my best of the bunch of attempts I made. I also like this other shot because the tail is fanned out (but the beak is kind of dark.)
