Field Notes

Description:

The song thrush is 20 to 23.5 cm in length and weighs 50–107 gr. The sexes are similar, with plain brown backs and neatly black-spotted cream or yellow-buff underparts, becoming paler on the belly. The underwing is warm yellow, the bill is yellowish and the legs and feet are pink. The upperparts of this species become colder in tone from west to east across the breeding range from Sweden to Siberia. The juvenile resembles the adult, but has buff or orange streaks on the back and wing coverts.

Habitat:

The song thrush breeds in forests, gardens and parks.
