I'm not a poster here, but need help.
Whilst out looking for butterflies, I spotted what I thought was a female blackbird fluffed up sitting in a tree - odd I know. On closer inspection although it was similar colouring (dark brown/black) it proved not to be the case. I could only see the upper two thirds and the other info is.
50% (maybe more) larger than female blackbird, solid colouring (no markings), longer rounded dirty yellow beak. Bold head and body.
Any ideas. Seen in Chase nature reserve, Dagenham, Essex.
