Fieldfare Mark II

I'm sorry to blip the same bird as yesterday but I couldn't resist as fieldfares such unusual visitors. I don't know if it's the same one as yesterday but as soon as I put apple in the garden it descended (obviously keeping watch from somewhere). 

It ate at a tremendous speed and when too full to eat more moved to the fence or tree to let it go down while keeping an eye on the apple. It kept repeating this until the fruit was gone. 

At one point another fieldfare came and sat on the washing line post but must have been lower down the pecking order as it didn't attempt to eat even though the other one was taking a rest. The blackbirds didn't attempt to eat the apple either so this was obviously Top Bird.
