Hello, 
  
While eating breakfast at Cracker Barrel in Murfreesboro, I noticed a white 
bird.  My first impression was that it was an American Robin.  The bird stayed 
in the leaves under the trees.  It acted more Brown Thrasher like than American 
Robin like scratching around back and forth in the leaves and flipping debris 
in the air.  So, I decided it must be a Brown Thrasher.  Finally, it appeared 
in the open with ...you'll never believe it...both a Brown Thrasher and an 
American Robin.  Argh!  (My husband and children are witnesses!)  I decided 
based on its overall shape it was an American Robin.  All I have are very, very 
poor photos from my cell phone through the window at a distance.  Let me know 
what you think. 
  
Note I did not see any color on this bird.
