The family of Thrushes is distributed worldwide and is even found on many small islands in the Pacific, only missing in Antarctica and New Zealand. But Blackbirds and Song thrushes have been introduced there and have reproduced so much that they are now among the most common birds. Thrushes mainly feed on insects and other invertebrates, but berries also play a role in winter.
