[Doris Tichenor <dctichenor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We hung out our hummingbird feeders on April 18 and had two infrequent 
visitors the next day. So far they seem shy. They don't hang around 
much.

This morning at dawn we heard a "thump" against a window at our house. 
Upon investigation we found a dead wood thrush. We have heard wood 
thrushes in the  woods near our house for many years but had never even 
seen one about our yard. Needless to say, we are devastated. Does 
anyone have any ideas (short of covering windows with plywood!) for 
stopping this slaughter?
