Redwing (Turdus iliacus)

It's been so mild and springlike here, I'd stopped thinking about winter thrushes and was surprised to see this bird today.

Thank you for your kind comments on my pictures, and good birding!

A wonderful capture of this delightful, if unexpected, visitor John! We had quite a few around the end of last year but haven't seen any since!

PS Many thanks for your most kind words on my very fortuitous capture of the Goshawk!
