Field Notes

Description:

This baby bird was foraging, but hadn't learned to be scared of people yet. I can never ID baby birds so I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks for the ID suggestions Paul Davis and Jopy. It IS hard to ID baby birds, but I'll look through pictures on-line and see if I can make a decision.

I think this may be a juvenile Dunnock /Hedge Accentor ----Prunella modularis.It isn't always easy identifying young birds,and young Robins and Dunnocks are very similar .
