Song Thrush?

I saw a flock of birds today at my local park in Dorset. And there was a flock of birds and I think they were song thrushes. However, up until now I have only seen a song thrushes on their own.

I have got this picture, though not very good due to poor light and it wasn't really close enough

I was just wondering if I am mistaken in thinking these birds were song thrushes or if they do infact go round in flocks?

Thanks

Yes a Song Thrush. Have to say I've never seen more than a handful together- perhaps it was with a flock of Redwing which are a similar size + shape.

Well, at first I thought maybe they could be redwings, but when i used my binoculars to have a look at them all in the tree, they all looked that same as the bird in the picture ...

Maybe the light just made them look the same ....
