Swainson's Thrush questions



I live near Westminster College and I have been seeing a Swainson's Thrush foraging in my shrubs today. I have never seen one in SLC. I hear their amazing song in the canyon, and that is the main reason I go to the canyons on summer evenings. Do they ever nest here? Is there something I can do to encourage it to stay?

We feed suet, black-oil sunflower seeds, thistle, cracked corn, and fruit. We have several running water features in the garden.

Thanks in advance.
