Out walking our dog in our local village today and had a Cock Blackbird alight in a Lilac bush just in front of me, weirdly it had a shiny jet black bill and glossy feathers not matt, with no eye ring either and it’s breast was quite speckled with fine golden spots.
It was only 8 feet away and definitely a Cock blackie, but never seen one with a Black bill and glossy plumage?
