Fieldfare and Larks

The winter migrants will be heading north soon, so I thought I would give them another visit.
The birds listen to the soil, for worms below. I also recently came across a group of skylarks. A bird that I always love to photograph. A number of the birds were ascending skyward in song flight, which seems to be early in the year, but much appreciated.

Beautiful images. That top one reminds me of our robin but with a different wardrobe.

Thanks for the replies. I am just about to post some more 'thrush' shots. March is the month I usually go out to take some photos of skylarks with the bonus of the occasional northern wheatear towards the end of the month. Spring is always a busy time and the unusual can always turn up as migration gets under way.

Cheers
