to ask if you recognise this bird song?

[biddybird]

This guy sings in my garden early morning and evening. He/she has such a beautiful voice! Can anyone please tell me—what kind of bird is this?

I've listened to all the recorded bird calls I can find and none of them match!

NewYear This one's not as warbly or shrill as a robin.

Boosey The song thrush is beautiful!

I'm going to get the binoculars out and try to spot/get a picture of him. I'm coming round to the idea that it's a territorial male blackbird with a regional accent. Thanks everyone!

I’m absolutely certain it is a blackbird..such a beautiful song.❤️

Sounds like a blackbird to me.

If you are looking for him, he'll be high up and visible. On a lamp post, a television aerial, a chimney. Prolaiming his territory.

Adding another vote for blackbird. Their song is so varied - I’m always amazed by them.

Definitely a blackbird - the one in my garden sounds just the same

Oh, and I'm listening to this outside and you've set it off!!

Agree blackbird, fwiw I've just listened to the rspb blackbird song and it's not the same as my blackbirds.

Blackbird. I just played this out loud while sitting in garden & my local male blackbird started singing back

Sounds like a blackbird. Look for him somewhere up high - mine sits at the very top of the tallest tree in the garden.

This is a nice bit of info for bird song lovers. They also have live webcams of nesting boxes too. I don’t work for them 😸

Defo a blackbird, very musical, and LOUD!

Thanks to everyone who commented! I tried to spot him this afternoon but I suspect he is in a very bushy (and tall) tree that overhangs my garden fence.
I will keep trying…

I think it's blackbirds

Another vote for blackbird. I never tire of listening to ours, his song varies all the time.

Same as almost everybody else - it's a Blackbird. Starlings try and copy the notes, but generally screw it up at the end by making sneezing noises or trying to create a mash up with Wrens and Robins.

Oh, and at the end, you've got a Blackbird alarm call and a Wren.
