Song Thrush or Immature Blackbird?

[John Tongue <>]

Hi all,
I don't know about the Song Thrush in Melbourne, but I do know you  
need to be careful where you go bird-watching there.  I had an hour  
to spend in transit the other day at Melbourne ariport, on my way  
back to beautiful Tassie.  Having heard of Purple-crowned Lorikeets  
at Melbourne airport, I went roaming just outside the terminal  
building with binoculars in tow (only found Muskies), but was very  
quickly confronted by Security, wanting to know if there was a reason  
I was taking photos outside the Terminal.  It took a bit of  
explaining that they were bins., not a camera, and I was just  
birdwatching, not a terrorist!
