"Thrushes such as the Eastern Bluebird and the Swainson's Thrush may respond to human disturbances to search for insects. In this case some scattered trees over recently mowed grass was a feeding bonanza. Perching on low branches they dropped to the ground picking up exposed insects and larvae." -- Carl Kurtz
