crm211b Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Hi, This guy was in with a large flock of warblers this morning in Ottawa, Canada. I can't figure out what he is. Unfortunately, this was the only picture I could get of him. Thanks, Darryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crm211b Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 I figured it was some kind of thrush. I had eliminated Hermit because I thought the tail should be redder/orangeyer for a Hermit thrush. Is this tail colour ok for Hermit Thrush? Thanks!

akiley Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I think the lighting is washing out part of the tail color here. I'm seeing a bit of reddish, and the lack of a buffy eyering rules out Swainson's. Hermit for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
