ring ouzel

The eggs number from three to six, somewhat resembling those of the Blackbird or Ring Ouzel.

Its nest is very similar to that of the ordinary Ring Ouzel or Blackbird, and is located in the middle of a dense bush.

The ring-ouzel is a regular visitor to the open country of Dartmoor, while the dipper haunts many of its streams.

In form and movements the Ring Ouzel is a more elegantly shaped bird than the Blackbird.

A ring-ouzel flies wildly from the rowan-tree, and four or five species of thrushes are among the berries of the shrubs.
