Thrush and snails
10th March 2006, FridayWe have a very active and hungry song thrush in our garden who has been battering our resident snails on stones. Two species are favoured, the white-lipped snail Cepaea hortensis and the brown-lipped snail C. nemoralis. With luck some of the larger shells may be used as nests by solitary bees later in the summer.
