The song thrush (Turdus philomelos) and blackbird (Turdus merula) are both members of the thrush family, and while they have distinct calls, their vocalizations share certain characteristics. The song thrush is known for its varied and melodious song, which can include clear notes, trills, and imitations of other bird species. The blackbird, on the other hand, has a rich, flute-like song with elements of whistles and melodious phrases.
When using recall sounds for hunting or birdwatching, incorporating the calls of both the song thrush and blackbird can create an interesting dynamic. These birds may respond to each other's vocalizations, especially during the breeding season when they use songs to establish territories and attract mates. The use of mixed recall sounds can potentially attract both species, as they may interpret the presence of a perceived competitor or potential mate
However, it's important to note that while using recall sounds can be an effective strategy for attracting birds, it should be done ethically and responsibly to minimize disturbance to the birds and their natural behaviors.
