Default Some sort of Thrush ?

This bird is the sise of a thrush and I know it is not a blackbird or a song thrush by the markings on it's wings. I could be a Mistle Thrush but the Beak seam the wrong colour. It was a very long way off I do know this field where the trees are is always full of Redwings and song thrushes
I have only lightened the photos of this .I haven't done any thing else
