Great pics, they made me smile In the last house I lived in I had so many different breeds of birds I fed daily I lost count lol. Birdsong is the one of the best sounds to listen to

I saw a Jay the other day and last week heard my first ever woodpecker

I was a little concerned by the thread title  but I'm glad I took a chance. Great pix Conthuiasms. I can't remember when I last saw a thrush in my garden in London. 

do you have other gardens other than your London abode?

I glad they did YR. I'm fortunate living in Sheffield as we are a very "wooded" city. My new double glazing is too good at dampening the early morning bird song.

Thanks Xochi.

Don't know if you picked up on the post, but that was three different birds.

I shall change the title to include the word "feathered" as you are right 

Not per se.  The nearest I have to a country pile is to visit my Dad's cottage in Cambridgeshire. 

I did.  I was envious you had 3 thrushes when I haven't seen one for ages. 

Beautiful thrushes, EC. I have bird envy.

Thank you very much.

Lovely pics! 

EC, they're great. We had a dove nesting behind our Sky dish but they've gone now, the majority I see in my garden are Magpies

Brilliant pics EC

I'm amazed at how advanced your cherries are. Here in (the supposedly) warmer south mine are just little green bullets

Thanks Cinds & Rexi.

We have lots of magpies too - not my favourite bird. Saw one being attacked by a crow or rook recently, about 6 other magpies surrounded the battle, all chipping in. I did not stay to see the outcome! Then last week I saw a magpie "take" a small bird possibly a young sparrow.

Rexi, here in Sheffield we have had lots of rain, but some good strong sunshine too. Although not fantastically hot we have had some warm weather - I think we have a sort of micro climate here, hiding on the other side of the pennines
