A Varied Thrush is being seen at the LawnRidge Cemetary in Rochelle. It was first discovered on Sunday, February 4 by a nearby homeowner, who reported it on the Great Back yard bird count. I was seen both 2/24 and 2/25. The cemetary is located on 8th Avenue, about 1/2 block west of Woolf St. This area is west of IL 251 in the northwest section of Rochelle. The bird has also been seen from the cul-de-sac at the end of 15th Street on the north side of the cemetary at bird feeders behind the last house on the west side of the street.
