I saw this bird in my backyard the other day, and I don’t think I’ve seen this kind of bird before. Anyone know what kind it is?

I’ve been told it is a varied thrush (Ixoreus naevius).

Not today in real Ashland, but once upon a time, five years ago when today’s photo was taken, there was a sunny day in Lithia Park.

Sesame Asian Kitchen curry

My random, desktop image of the day is from almost 10 years ago. This curry dish is probably no longer on the menu, and I have no memory of how much I liked it.
