I took this photograph this morning in Kikinda, Serbia the light was really grey so not a good photograph. I think it`s a Mistle Thrush difficult to tell from this picture.

Of interest perhaps, called a " Stormcock" due to their habit of singing just after a heavy shower, stormy weather, particularly early in the calendar year.

There for the Owls Mike?

Assuming you're aware of the wintering Pygmy Cormorants in Belgrade?

Yes and they are very close to our hotel 50/60 at a time. I saw Pygmy Cormorants in Belgrade and a lot more out of the city on the Danube.

Sorry to be pedantic: the tree in Andy's photo is a pine & the one in yours is a birch. 8-P
