Autumn Song Thrush and Blue Tit



There are three individual, Song Thrushes (one adult 2 juveniles) to be seen around the garden at the moment. They're shy and their presence is often given away just by their 'seep' call as they fly around the garden and pastures beyond. Doubtless they are struggling to find slugs and snails - such is the dryness and hardness of the ground, but for now, this moulting first winter bird seems quite happy feeding in the Sloe berries in the Blackthorn.

Blue Tits seem to be be omnipresent in the autumn garden, happy foraging in the undergrowth and Lillies by the pond, as they are in the Spruce and Dog Rose further down the garden.
