  1. What an awesome fall-like scene, with added water on its head. Great! Posted 10 years ago
    1. Thanks Ferdy. It's surprising how autumn like it is at the moment, even though it is officially Spring! Posted 10 years ago

The Olive Thrush is, in its range, one of the most common members of the thrush family . It occurs in east African highlands from Eritrea and Ethiopia in north to the Cape of Good Hope in south. It is a bird of forest and woodland, but has - locally - adapted to parks and large gardens in suburban areas.
