Can anyone identify this bird seen in southern England today?

[Putmedownfor5shagger]

Could anyone kindly tell me what bird this is? Seen is southern England today, near fields.

Juvenile starling maybe.

I'd agree

Could it be a whitethroat @Putmedownfor5shagger?

eta; are you near Canvey Island? (Canvey Wick Nature Reserve)

Looks too big for a whitethroat though hard to tell
It’s the right size and general colour for a female blackbird but the male is usually not far away.

Starlings have a shorter beak, I think a female blackbird.

Juvenile robin - almost sure. From the RSPB website. https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/robin

scroll down the page a little!

We do have starlings and blackbirds on our feeder but this bird was so much bigger and more rotund!
Merlin bird app can't identify it.

It has a very dark head, beak and face with a white throat.

@stichguru thank you for this. Im not sure though- it was much bigger than a robin and much darker than the pic of the juvenile Robin on the link.

i think baby starling just because I've had a few on my lawn this week and it looks the same, they're bigger than their parents (fluffier I guess) and don't have all the lovely colours yet so just look greyish

Interesting... not sure myself based on your size description

Whitethroat?

I would have said Whitethroat too. Youngsters are always fatter/fluffier than the adults at this time of year.

It's a fluffy baby something. We have lots here at the moment, sparrows mainly.

We have pigeons nesting in the hedge and for the first time I saw a young one... Adult sized but tried to land on my garden waste bin and skidded straight off, managed to thunk itself in to the hedge which made the whole thing wobble and then very clumsily hopped back to where they live.

It's a beautiful time 😍

Whitethroat

How big exactly if bigger than a blackbird?
Pigeon sized? Crow sized?

I think its a female blackbird! I googled it and the pic matches.

It also just appeared with a male blackbird on the feeder.

Its larger and much more rotund than the male - I feel its pain!

Our male blackbird feeds the female!
