They are plump, soft plumaged, small to medium sized insectivores or sometimes omnivores, often feeding on the ground.

 Music: Thrush Hermit
A thrush is "any of numerous small or medium-sized passerine birds which are mostly of a plain colour often with spotted underparts and many of which are excellent singers." Corny, I know, to do the definition thing, but it's pretty much on the money.
So if Thrush Hermit were a largely undistinguished or indistinguishable group that got a bit of a free ride into the national spotlight with the great Halifax Explosion of '92, all of that changed with their first full-length album, Sweet Homewrecker (Elektra, 1997).
And it was a long road from the proverbial garage--10 years ago as 13-year-old enthusiasts--to the suits and deadlines of Elektra, to the sessions in Memphis with indie-cred producer Doug Easley (Pavement, Grifters), to the great disappointment of a business-end crush that was simultaneous with a creative flush.

Thrush is a yeast infection (a fungus) of the infant mouth, which can also affect the nursing mother's nipples and/or breasts.
If Thrush is diagnosed, you're in for a long haul, but you can get rid of it.
Some doctors will refuse to prescribe more than a single day's worth of Diflucan, saying one pill is good for a week (true for vaginal yeast infections, but not true for breast yeast), and/or advise you to "pump and dump" your milk for the duration of the treatment.

Among other things, it was not considered a true Vermonter because, unlike the blue jay or crow (which were favored by some legislators), the Hermit Thrush leaves Vermont during the winter in its southward migration.
The record is not clear, but this bird was selected to represent Vermont, among other things, because it has a distinctive sweet call, and because it is found in all of Vermont's 14 counties.
