NIce to see you and your list of what you saw this cold day out...question? Is it a normal thing at this time of year to have the Song Thrush there?

Peter - thank you for your kind words. I'll be right back on form once I've got my business under control!

Gaye - Song Thrushes are resident birds, so we get 'em all year round. It's funny though, but in winter we seem to get more of the other thrushes such as the Mistle Thrush, plus Redwing and Fieldfares, although the Song Thrush is less gregarious than the Redwing.
