Oh, Jolly....

We have fieldfares in the garden. Six at least. No, more- a flock. One of them found a puddle to bathe in and others joined in. It chased the first interloper off- "This is my bath water" but then it was outnumbered. A couple of starlings saw what was going on and joined in too.

Yesterday there were goldfinches.

I never heard of a fieldfare. It looks lovely.

I don't think they're rare exactly, but I've never had a flock descend on me before.

Native to your continent it seems.

Yes, probably so.

Very likely
