Mistle Thrash

[GAM]

I'm just asking if anyone has noticed more Mistle thrushes this spring/summer?

I'm in Carmarthenshire, and we have a lot this year that haven't migrated, great to see as long as they survive the Wet!
For the second time in eight years we have had one solitary Pewit too...

Saw one on a gate in the yard only yesterday. Thought it seemed a bit unusual.

Saw the thread title.... immediately thought of Scandinavian and Russian saunas

Thought it might have been a variant on birch twigs

Oh well

We're in West Carms and we've usually got a few pairs about the place, I can't say that there are definitely more around this year, but they certainly do seem more noticeable. I like them, particularly they way that they don't tolerate any crap from the crows and squirrels, but mob them fearlessly.

I would imagine that you and your fellow flagellants will have quite enjoyed the recent lock down and all those movement restrictions down in your dungeon Baldrick.
