This morning I spotted a bird on the flat roofs opposite me that caught my attention because of its large bill. I quickly grabbed my binoculars and from behind it looked like a mistle thrush (which would be unusual enough since I've never seen one anywhere near my flat), also a short glimpse at its belly would support this identification as well as its overall size and shape. However this bird had a large black bill - probably 2-3 times the size of a mistle thrush bill and shaped more like that of a woodpecker. Any ideas what it might be? (I'm in Norwich, UK)
