Blending in (Turdus viscivorus, Erithacus rubecula)

The autumnal colours are reflected in the birds as well I think.

It really was a lovely sight seeing these two sitting so close together with the autumn leaves and fruits.

BTW the Gallery Search is not working properly at the moment and is only picking up items in the Tags field (the luggage label). It would be extremely helpful if you could enter some yourself when uploading your images. Scientific name, Common Name and the Location (county/state/country) are rather essential. Anything else you wish to add would be a bonus. I hope you can help with this

Wow, how strange to see these two so close to each other, and it's a reminder that Mistle Thrushes really are quite big birds. Beautiful autumnal colours make a fine setting. Great shot Delia.
