    I thought when I looked at the post that you meant Victoria in Australia.

    The deep snow here has brought every species from Sparrow Hawks to Dunnocks into the garden. It's a real pleasure to watch them and know that I'm helping them through this awful weather by putting out food for them.

    Hi Sjoerd, the bird is a Varied Thrush, a male and a female.

    Thanks mate.
    I sort of like the way this sort looks, male and female. I could see that the breast feathers were different, and that one was lighter than the other.
