Thrush, because Frodo was never afraid of the thrush.
He was afraid of a pony when Merry came to meet them after they stayed at Farmer Maggot's, because swathed in his scarf, Merry looked like a Ringwraith on his steed (albeit a very short, stubby Ringwraith!)
He was afraid of dogs because Farmer Maggot owned dogs, who had chased Frodo out of their master's field more than once.
Frodo was probably slightly afraid of the oliphaunt that he and Sam saw in Ithilien.
