SMaP 182 - Free Theme (Thrushes)

in #hive-1064442 months ago

I would like to say thank you to dear @nelinoeva for this competition. You can find the announcement and rules here.

This week's theme is - FREE THEME
What about thrushes? Autumn is approaching, the time when you can see these birds without any problems.

The fieldfare is the most numerous species that I meet in the forests. With the onset of autumn, they gather in flocks and raid berry bushes, such as rowan or viburnum with crab apples.

Next in numbers are the white-browed thrushes or Redwing. This species is smaller than the previous one, they have a lot of white in their plumage and a distinct red spot under the wings.

I meet Song Thrushes in spring, when they sit on the treetops and sing beautiful melancholic songs. The rest of the time they are not seen or heard. By the way, I also met them in late autumn, which speaks of their resistance to cold.

I've only met a Black-throated thrush once. And that was probably it. They are very similar to fieldfare, maybe I often confused them with them.

A very beautiful bird, no doubt I have a lot to learn, thanks for the info.

It sure makes spotting birds easier when the trees have lost their leaves. Splendid pictures, always so vibrant.

Gorgeous pictures!
I am looking forward to spotting the thrushes next months. They come for a short time in the park, although the redwing was almost there the whole winter.
Thank you for your wonderful post and entry!

Thrushes out and about always a pleasure to see, being in the tree makes it easier to spot than when running on the ground. Nice captures once again.
