Pittville Redwing (Turdus iliacus)

On this cold and snowy day about 200 mixed Redwing and Fieldfare were in the park.
Unfortunately this bird likes to keep its distance and they have enough lookouts to stop being accidentally approached.

Location
Pittville Park, Cheltenham
Date taken
7 February 2009
Scientific name
Turdus iliacus
Equipment used
Lumix DMC-FZ7
Notorious for their skittishness. The ones that think they are waxwings are easier. Nice work.
 
Nice shot, looks similar to the Brown Thrasher I've photographed here in Central Texas.:t:
