Thrush ID please
Can somebody help me ID this bird please.
The photo was taken yesterday (sorry about poor quality) whilst photographing gravestones in Stoke Fleming, Devon, UK. I was only using a Sony DSC P200 so only had 3 x magnification. The bird was acting and sounding very much like a blackbird. Shaun Last edited by spmontgomery : Tuesday 23rd August 2005 at 18:49. |

The photo uploaded was cropped heavily and doubled in size using Genuine Fractals and sharpened a little. Here are the three that I took which have only been cropped to reduce the size of the image(oringinals were about 3meg each). The bird was about 20 feet away. Now, my first thoughts were, is it a juvenile/female Ring Ouzel? Shaun |
