Woke up this morning to witness the arrival of the Fieldfare, they arrive every year during the winter to strip as many berries from the tree outside the house as possible. There are approximately 60 birds at the moment but that will increase as the message spreads!
The Fieldfare is 22-27 cm long, with a plain brown back, white underwings, and grey rump and rear head. The breast has a reddish wash, and the rest of the underparts are White. The breast and flanks are heavily spotted. They are members of the Thrush family
Just thought I would share this with you all.
