This lovely female turned up in my garden the other day(thrush of course!!)
I would like to think it was the same one as last year but who knows,just nice to see them around.

Beauty bird, Bob. Would have made a good (not too hard) mystery photo. Nice one.

John.

The males are indeed good lookers. Are they winter only visitors to Turkey? I have seen therm in several parts of Greece and Italy and thought they were resident.

I have just been checking Joanne,and I have only seen them in September ,then they usually arrive in the garden in January(early this year)until March!!But the books say they are resident!
It's strange I never see the males in the garden,and it's the same with the Rb shrike,Woodchat shrike,Whitethroat,Be wheatear and Black redstart.
