    Not as good as Beryl's recent shots, but really pleased to have seen them, they were in the trees opposite the house.

    Great to be able to record them there, Rolf! Was that where you photographed the little deer before?

    It's not fair. I haven't seen any near us at all...

    Thanks all, yes it was across from the drive Catherine, just out of the front bedroom window. They are pretty small for a Thrush and with the dull cloudy weather it was difficult to tell them apart from the smaller birds which normally sit in the trees, like Chaffinches.

    Pretty birds, though - and not bad captures.
