Lovely shot Harold. Like the pose of the bird with its catch. The big black eye is kind of mesmerising. The twirl branch he stand on adds up a little kick.
The eye stands out well from the brown colour, Yves. That brown colour is hard to spot sometimes against the rotting wood and leaves at this time of year.
Hermit Thrushes are very good at catching grubs, Debra. Even in the winter I doubt if they ever go hungry.
