Pair of Song Thrushes, Prospect Park, Reading, UK

Before a closer look I’d been assuming Red Wings because of the time of year, but no.

    Oh wow, I didn’t see the second one at first, the composition of the two of them together is gorgeous. I bet it would make a lovely painting.

    Edit: out of curiosity do you know what kind of tree it is? It looks vaguely like an American Mountain Ash, but yet different… Is there a UK Mountain Ash?

      I just know it as (or would guess at) Mountain Ash - I hadn’t realised there was an American species with the same name. Very common over here, and birds are fond of the berries when ripe. Also called a Rowan, but that’s not the name I use.
