A Shy Song Thrush

A Shy Song Thrush...



An increasingly rare sight in the garden, and proof of a much larger national decline, a Song Thrush visited the garden yesterday morning. This very shy thrush has been absent in the garden for over 2 years, and whilst photographing a Redwing, this guy appeared out of nowhere. He stayed for literally 1 second before seeing me and bolting away.

Nice blog with awesome picture of bird in the garden. I wish if I could set a bird feeder in my garden. It was nice going through your blog.

We've had a song thrush in our garden for the past week or so. It's only the second time we've seen one in 18 years!

Lovely picture Bill and well done for being quick off the mark - agile shutter finger. I am glad to see that he looks well fed and in fine fettle given the recent weather. GRAMPS.
