Pamela Moresby
This is the “Thrush!”. An import from England and yet a gardener’s best friend. It eats slugs, snails and worms, bugs and even the odd crust.
It sits on top of a tree and sings its song twice. Its got a good clear voice for tuneful singing.
The ancestors of the Thrush are from England. Yet, its quite a successful bird in New Zealand.
Farmers should be happy with their visits

Most Welcome Pamela!
Love the bird of the day, the Thrush plays an important role in Lord of the Rings (my favorite books).
Certainly does, I am a fan of Lord of the Rings. Thanks Doc.
You live in the land it was filmed (Jealous)! I am looking forward to the next bird of the day!
I love these birds. They are so cute.

Today’s bird is such a cutie!
Thanks so much Ellie glad you like it.
It’s not very nice or exotic, but it’s useful for the garden, and you say it’s singing, which is very nice when listening to singing birds.
Thanks Robin, I always loved the Thrush.
We have several species of thrush in the US.
Thanks Carol. I think America has many different types of thrush. These are our only ones in NZ
