Berberis Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 That's not a robin. It's a young song thrush. I have several in my garden (that the magpies haven't had yet!). Try telling me this is a thrush too then: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4d/Young-robin-lg-wikipedia.jpg Mr Know it all Young song thrush : http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3294/2533649912_5ceaa17b90.jpg?v=0 Young Robin: http://www.pixalo.com/gallery/data/503/4_5376.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox20thc Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 Hmmm so it's either a baby robin or a thrush. Well it was ever so cute anyway, and look who else I met in the park new friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was ever so cute anyway, and look who else I met in the park new friend If it was so small and a lot smaller than an adult song thrush, it’s certainly not a fledgling thrush as birds fledge the nest at almost the same physical size as the adult. It’s a young robin with its parents if you saw it with adult robins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a young robin with its parents if you saw it with adult robins. I'm 99% sure it's a robin too. Thought robin even before I read that it was alongside adult ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox20thc Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 Okay I think we can agree it's a robin, there was an adult robin feeding close by too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
