Can A Blackbird Ever Be Mistaken For A Thrush?
7 Answers
I have a bird feeding from my table feeder at the moment (from a suet slab)that looks like a thrush but the breast is less distinctively speckled than the normal thrush. I wonder if it could be a female blackbird with a slightly speckled chest. Otherwise could it be a thrush with a less than "thrush like" breast speckling?

If in doubt then endeavour to look carefully at the bird's legs. The blackbirds are somewhat darker than those of a thrush.:-
