The birds seem unusually active; there must be a fresh bloom of aerial plankton. Even the brown thrasher brings his jazz to the yard.

Nice! I had to look up brown thrasher as we don’t have them here. https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?fr=yhs-pty-pty_converter&hsimp=yhs-pty_converter&hspart=pty&p=brown+thrasher#id=4&vid=60e0d82321ed257597536d6a94d6110b&action=view
Depending on where people live, they may be more familiar with its cousins the catbird and the mockingbird. All three birds are masters of improvisation, but the thrasher has the highest number of documented unique phrases in a row: more than 2000, in one study.
