The song thrush (Turdus philomelos) is a familiar garden visitor that has a beautiful and loud song. It is also commonly found in parks, woodland and scrub. The broken shells of their blue, spotty eggs can often be found under a hedge in spring.

The song thrush is a familiar bird, brown above, with a white belly covered in black, drop-shaped spots. It is smaller and a warmer brown than the mistle thrush, and lacks the white eyestripe and red flank patches of the redwing.

Living up to its common name, the song thrush has a beautiful, loud song with repeating phrases. Widespread throughout Europe, and as far east as Siberia, northern populations are migratory, heading to Africa, whereas UK song thrushes tend to be residents. From March until April, song thrushes breed, often producing three broods of up to five blue, spotty eggs.

Song thrushes will eat all kinds of food, but earthworms make up a large part of their diet. When the ground becomes too hard to get at them, song thrushes will eat snails instead. To get at the meat inside, they take the shell and crack it open by banging it against a stone 'anvil'. This behaviour is unique to these birds.

Good morning, everyone, and happy Thursday!

Just a quick CI as I need to be up and at 'em early. Today is parish lunch, and I also have errands to run before church. I'm hoping the overnight rain will have cleared by then!
