o.uk...
For the past few days there has been a large flock, 100+ of Fieldfares in
the garden. I didn't recognise them and had to do a bit of research to
identify.

They have been feeding on windfall apples from three trees. I have taken
some photo's yesterday which was easier said than done. I collected a
carrier bag full of apples (the bait) and put them on the ground about
15-20ft from a small window, me behind the curtain with camera. For the
first couple of hours nothing, then blackbirds. After a while a solitary
fieldfare came over only to be persistently chased off by the blackbirds.
Eventually I got my shots, but the light was failing by this time.
I've yet to have a look at the pics but will upload any successful in the
next few days.

I had to look up 'fieldfares'. I hadn't heard of them. Hurry up with those
piccies, mark
