This was my original thought but the markings on the head and the red colouring under the wings has drawn me away from it???? Wasnt in the pocket guide book and it's tough looking for a bird on the Internet that you haven't a clue on the name? Lol

Looks like a redwing to me, close relation to the song thrush.
