Fieldfares are the largest of the thrushes; they visit Britain & Ireland during the winter months. They start arriving on the UK’s eastern coasts from western Russia and eastern Europe during early October. Numbers vary each year and are dependent on berry crops closer to their breeding grounds. Fieldfares move in large numbers in search of berries.

Driving back from our Sunday walk, we came across a Buzzard enjoying breakfast from a road-killed pheasant.
