About These Birds

Common Blackbird

The common blackbird is one of Europe's most familiar and best-loved songbirds, celebrated for its rich, fluting song delivered from rooftop and treetop perches at dawn and dusk. Originally a shy woodland bird, it has colonized urban environments over the past two centuries and become one of the most successful urban adapters.

Ashy Thrush

The Ashy Thrush is a Vulnerable thrush endemic to the Philippines, found in the forest understory of Luzon and a few adjacent islands. Weighing about 63g with a wingspan near 22.8cm, it has predominantly grey plumage with scaled underparts. Continuing forest loss on its island range poses a significant threat.
