OK… so I’m living in the countryside now and I meeting birds that I don’t recognize… I’ll be plagueing here for a while on IDs.
Can someone confirm this one? Looks a bit like a Song Thrush… but not convinced. Believe me… I’m not being lazy, I am looking up the books first but sometimes it’s hard to tell some birds apart.
The Mistle Thrush is more spotted than streaked on the breast. I do have a photo of a Song Thrush and it doesn’t match up well with this one.
Very confusing at times ID’ing these guys.
Walked outside the house this morning… a rabbit and about 50 birds in the garden… of course they all legged it when they seen me. Not as easy get good photos cos these guys aren’t used to having people around whilst in town they were a bit more lax with my poncing about.
Although… a Pied Wagtail has be-friended me and follows me around the site… coming within about 8-10 ft at times.
