BICKNELL'S THRUSH
Catharus bicknelli: 6-7"
Cornell link
Bickell's Thrushs are very similar to Grey Cheeked Thrushes, and were in fact only distinguished recently.
Well.... the debate goes on. This very-well may be a Gray Cheeked Thrush. I thought it was a Wood Thrush which spawned major debate between me and my father. He won. This bird isn't even found in my Audubon's guides. If in fact this is a Bicknell's Thrush, it must have thought that Rutland State Park was similar enough to a mountain top to pull it from its normal breeding ground, which consists of mountain tops from northern New England to southern Quebec.
