Subject: [MASSBIRD] Confusing Thrush
I had a thrush this morning that was pale olive-brown with no differentiation between back and rump/tail; no tail pumping; indistinct spotting at throat and upper breast only, and light facial patterning (no ‘spectacles’, so not seeming to be a Swainson’s.) It looked mostly like a pale Hermit thrush with no warm tail color, or a washed-out brownish Veery. Any thoughts? It crossed my yard and kept going, so I didn’t get an extended look.
