Thrush from sund ?. N. Sweden (8 Viewers)

Now I've looked at the range of Mistle in context, yes it would be interesting as if it is a Mistle, then maybe significant locally - someone must know if they breed in Kiruna.

Of course if it is a Fieldfare it would be a lot of fuss over nothing :-O

We'll probably never know now...:t:

Agree with Song Thrush, a common bird in that part of Sweden. Not seeing the connection with either to Mistle Thrush or Fieldfare. Can hear the bough of a tree rattling though :eek!:

Ha! Listened again and did finally pick up the Mistle Thrush call near the end. Still Song Thrush for the singing bird.

That was settled a long time ago.

There are very few birders up here in Kiruna, so the numbers are low.

Mistle Thrush reports to the national system (Artportalen) in Kiruna:

2017 - 10
2016 - 16
2015 - 20
2014 - 16
2013 - 13

So, something between 10-20/year.

Yes, MT so that probably settles it.
