In winter I have seen flocks of fieldfare, redwing and mistle thrush plus the usual jackdaws, rooks, starlings and seasonal swallows.
I see a mistle thrush perching on a wall across the river, a species that I now realize we never saw in Mallorca.
The mistle thrush will sing sometimes in spells of at least 3 hours.
The fruit is eaten by most frugivorous birds, and through their agency, particularly that of the species which is accordingly known as missel-thrush or mistle-thrush, the plant is propagated.
