Here's a Varied Thrush under one of my feeders a couple years ago.

I don’t think of the varied thrush as a seed eater, but since the big
snowstorm hit we’ve been observing one regularly, hanging out with the
sparrows eating millet scattered on the ground. Also, yesterday I briefly
saw a hermit thrush among the sparrows picking millet off the ground, but
it left quickly and did not return. I assume the varied thrush’s seed
eating is because its usual food sources are not available (although we
have lots of snowberries available in our yard). Any comments on this?
