song thrush

Have a doctors appointment this morning, so its post and run, see y'all later.

Well Peeps, Two of our trains were late on Wednesday, but we got to Topsham in time with an hour or so of good light left. Had a full day yesterday, feeling knackered this morning. Its been cold but weve had some lovely sunshine. Got one new bird, which I will share with...

A song thrush doing his thing!

the song thrush which is not seen as much in the gardens, a steady decline in them over the last couple of years, they thrive on slugs and worms, and slug pellets dont help.

Three Thrushes for ya today.

Shot thriugh double glazed window (too cold to go outside) and at iso 3200

Very rare visitors to my garden but last week there were several around all week (the red apples helped!).

Off home this morning, so hopefully catch up with y'all later.

I looked a bit like a snowman after taking this shot, very heavy snow that day!

Plenty of berries for this beautiful bird, don't I just love'um.

Another shot from the garden today - never seen so many Song Thrushes, such beautiful birds with great character.
