Description: | The song thrush is a familiar bird that is found throughout the country. It originally inhabited woodlands but has adapted successfully to parks, gardens and farmland. It feeds on worms, fruit and snails. It is renowned for its habit of smashing open snail shells on a flat stone. Unfortunately numbers are in a serious decline, thought to be linked to the intensification of agriculture and the loss of suitable habitat. Conservation measures are underway to try and halt the decline. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | animals natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
