IMAGICAT
I didn't manage to find what this smoke was about or exactly where it was coming from:
The Wood Pigeon was on the perch quite early on - see MARY's snap from the other day, I won't triplicate the effort (having already unwittingly duplicated it ).
Heather is said to have zoomed onto a Mistle Thrush (IIRC) but I can't find it so I'm off in a sulk...
Oh hang on, didn't realise I had another 6-hour clip to check.
No singsong, so didn't do a vid - and it was a zoom from a very great distance:
That's all I found up to not long ago.
Lovely closeup shots of a Wood Pigeon - Cam looks good!

Mary, just after that there was a Mistle Thrush singing away.

It was there for over 40 minutes, and very vocal at times - and very gorgeous too
I found 2 Mistle Thrush zooms but I think you've covered that bird perfectly well, Mary
