It is a year-round resident in much of its range, but northern and eastern populations migrate south for the winter, often in small flocks. It is a large thrush with pale grey-brown upperparts, a greyish-white chin and throat, and black spots on its pale yellow and off-white underparts. The sexes are similar in plumage, and its three subspecies show only minimal differences. The male&#8217;s loud song is delivered even in wet and windy weather, earning the bird the old name of &#8220;stormcock&#8221;. Found in open woods, parks, hedges and cultivated land, the mistle thrush feeds on a wide variety of invertebrates, seeds and berries, especially mistletoe, holly and yew fruits. It defends its open cup nest fearlessly against potential predators, sometimes including humans or cats. Following a large range expansion in the 18th and early 19th centuries, there has been a small decline in recent decades, perhaps due to changes in agricultural practices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Wikipedia article of the day for August 7, 2018 is Mistle thrush.
