[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Fieldfare (Turdus pilaris) is a member of the thrush family Turdidae. This species was first described by Linnaeus in his Systema naturae in 1758 under its current scientific name.[2] Its English name, dating back to at least the twelfth century, derives from the Anglo-Saxon feld-fere meaning "traveller through the fields", probably from their constantly moving, foraging habits.[3]

It breeds in woodland and scrub in northern Europe and Asia. It is strongly migratory, with many northern birds moving south during the winter. It is a very rare breeder in Great Britain and Ireland, but winters in large numbers in these countries.

It nests in trees, laying several eggs in a neat nest. Unusually for a thrush, they often nest in small colonies, possibly for protection from large crows. Migrating birds and wintering birds often form large flocks, often with Redwings.

It is omnivorous, eating a wide range of insects and earthworms in summer, and berries in winter.

The Fieldfare is 22-27 cm long, with a plain brown back, white underwings, and grey rump and rear head. The breast has a reddish wash, and the rest of the underparts are White. The breast and flanks are heavily spotted. The sexes are similar,

The male has a simple chattering song, and a chattering flight and alarm call. (wikipedia)

Bonjour Emanuel,
Splendide image, parfaitement nette et très bien exposée, malgré des conditions d'éclairement d'arrière plan difficiles.

Hello Emanuele,
A wonderful photo of this Fieldfare. When there was no piece of plastic, it should be a perfect photo. A pity!
Great clear colours, excellent sharp details, POV and pose.
Regards,
Peter

Buna Emanuel,

Fotografia ta este foarte bine facuta. Imaginea este excelenta fiind clara iar culorile saturate si naturale. Datorita bunei calitati a imaginii penajul poate fi bine studiat. Cu tot fundalul dificil ai reusit sa redai bine culorile. Pacat de bucata de nylon ce iese din zapada.

TFS si toate cele bune,
Cristian
