Bird identification help please.

[Fabnosh]

Morning

I had this little chap commit suicide flying into my French doors. I'm not really up on my birds but I know many on here are. Head wise it looks a bit dunnock like but the colour doesn't seem right.

Interestingly, this is the third bird to crash into my doors. In all the time I've been here I've never had a single one do that. The other two were Bluetits

Thanks in advance

Agreed (which is such a shame) but that's 100% a young robin that's recently fledged. Lovely to see them but they are such easy prey as they only fly a few yards before touching down again.

I would have said young robin as above.
We generally have a robins nest in our garden every year but they don’t seem to have managed this year

Think it's a Hare ?

Wrong number of whiskers. I checked just to make sure.

If a certain person wasn’t so rude about things that thread would have been good for people to learn.

You’ll need more than 1 for a good meal if barbecuing:

Tail is wrong. I'd suggest it's an otter.

You're kidding? It's obviously a rabbit......

Its quite Obvious its a lesser spotted Fox bait stiff wing .

It’s a young female robin. From the beak wear, feather development, eye spectacles, and leg length and colour I would estimate about 71/2 weeks old

You clearly didn’t measure the ears!
A few years ago I was lucky enough to fall in with a french hunter who very kindly invited me back to shoot sanglier the next year. In the intervening Xmas I sent him an Xmas card with the usual snow, holly and centrepiece of a robin. When i met him again he proudly produced the card and told me that they were rougegorge (redthroat) and were best appreciated 5 at a time on a skewer cooked over vine roots!! Funny folk the french.

Stuff it with maize. Drown it in Armagnac. Munch it with tea towel over head. Yum.
