The local Song Thrush sang almost continually from tea time until after dark. Wish I knew what this might mean with regard to the breeding cycle. Is he un-mated and looking for a mate, or defending an active nest, or getting ready to start a second brood. Had a look at Simms' "British Thrushes" but got distracted by the territorial behaviour of Blackbirds and didn't quite get to Song Thrushes. Maybe tomorrow...

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".
