Thanks Mike... it was crazy this morning... they were just coming in continuously... and only stopped after about 90 minutes coz the sun was shining directly into the hide and they could see my every movement.
Pretty sure you are right .... have adult male photo somewhere I think.

Thanks Paul.... assumed they were both 1st winters, albeit different birds.
I sorta got lost with all the comings & goings this morning.... not more than one minute passed without at least one Thrush bathing or looking to bathe for the full 90 minutes.
I went inside & later glanced out the window to see a couple more bathing.

The male Japanese is one of my favourites also

All the best, Guy
