Over the last weeks, the only vocalist in the birdworld of any musical merit has been the robin. Yesterday, on a bright sunny day, I heard a mistle thrush sing. These birds are noted for their early breeding, so, I expect that this bird was beginning to establish its breeding territory. Rather more surprisingly, I also heard a cock linnet with a very tuneful song.
What with the sun shining and everything, rather than being the start of winter, it felt more like the beginning of spring.
