Both the mistle and the song thrush start singing much earlier in the year than most other birds and their beautiful songs brighten up many a dull late winter morning.
What a wonderful primer on these two birds. This is an outstanding resource for birders, with exceptionally clear comparisons, both visually and aurally. Great job Maurice.
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down, there really are some idiots around. All I can say is well done, very informative and citizen science at it's best and thank you.
Thank you Steve, I"v just come in now from listening to the blackbird and song thrush singing their last songs of the day, I try and make a point of doing this most evenings at this time of year.
I was listening to a Song Thrush sing only yesterday, unfortunately there was too much traffic to enjoy it properly so thanks making this film, great sound quality.
Thank so much for your kind comments, I"v just come in now from listening to the blackbird and song thrush singing their last songs of the day, a great way to finish off the day.
Thanks Maurice for the MistleThrush song and its ratchetty screech too. I was woken by one yesterday 4am in Marylebone by very loud birdsong on the rooftops. I have a new BirdNET app and recorded the song. Amazed to see it was a MistleThrush visiting this part of capital!
Your videos are always so helpful, informative and so enjoyable Maurice, your knowledge I respect so much. Thank you so much for another fantastic video. I hope you have a lovely week. Su x 👍🏻🕊🦆🦅🐤🐦🐧🐥🦉
Subscribed after finding your Great Tit songs video. I grew up in Liverpool and we got a lot of common garden birds. After living in North Germany I've been in Norway for ten years now. I spotted a lone mistle thrush today in the garden. I'm planning on getting some field recording equipment to sample the sounds of my surroundings. Lovely videos Maurice and I'd gladly use these in my biology lessons at school.
Excellent sound and picture quality Maurice. This is the level of expertise that others strive to achieve. Thank You for your time, patience and knowledge in posting these films. N.
Thanks for your kind comments. It's a pity that you don't have the song thrush over there but I know that you have another of our favourite songsters, the blackbird, which I gather has established itself and is doing very well on the other side of the world.
PS The two trees near the end of the video with the apricot & white berries are the trees I have just had planted ( I think it's them) in my garden & I hope this autumn they will have berries for the birds. Su x
I hope your trees do well and have loads of berries this autumn. They are one of the best garden trees to plant as the leaves will also give you a beautiful display of rich autumn colours later in the year. They are listed in garden catalogs as Rowan or Sorbus, but I still use the old country name of Mountain Ash just as I do with Dunnock & Hedge Sparrow, also Lapwing and Peewit, old habits die hard!

I was sat watching/listening to a mistle thrush this afternoon, thinking how beautiful their song was. Thanks for posting. Steve.

Very informative to look at and to listen to
Here because I heard and saw a mistle thrush belting out its song from the top of a tree today, December 21st.
Very informative comparison, Maurice, and nicely put together. Thanks for that.

Thank you Graham for watching and taking the time to comment.
Informative video! Both beautiful singers. There are introduced Song thrushes living around Melbourne but not down here in Tasmania.
Thanks for your kind comments. It's a pity that you don't have the song thrush over there but I know that you have another of our favourite songsters, the blackbird, which I gather has established itself and is doing very well on the other side of the world.
Well done sir. Marvellous.

What is the bird that sings in the background besides the thrush? I had one of that singer in the yard every night, really want to know what it is.
