some hungry visitors






this is the first song thrush we have seen in the garden for a long time (top two photos). The song thrush is a much browner looking bird than the mistle thrush which is greyer and has a lighter face. The blackbird is also a member of the thrush family and the brown female (third photo) has very thrush like mottled breast feathers

  1. Wonderful wintery photos. Please keep us updated on the buzzard if you can. Tess and I are just loving the snow.

  2. The second pic...somewhat haughty this one, no?
