A well tuned photograph then,Adrian. ;); A very different shot of a Mistle Thrush,at least for me,a forest bird over here,best chance to see it is early mornings when they're looking for food in open meadows.

Fabulous and perfectly timed capture. That is such a demanding posture by the fledgling. You would have to surrender your wallet to that.
