My grateful thanks to Ian Dickerson whose perfectly cute photograph (lower thrush) was the inspiration behind this compilation of thrushes in ivy in January.

A little poem:
The handsome song thrush looks so sweet, yet thrashes with his 'weapon' beak
An unsuspecting snail in shell, against a stone, and, you can tell
He loves and gulps this juicy sprat, a garden pest gone—just like that!
Although the air is cold and clear, and blue skies sometimes do appear
The thrush will seek a comfort nook amongst the ivy leaves, but look
Some blackened berries still hang there, she'll pluck and eat till all is bare.
