2009-Oct-11, Lead Mine Pass.

About two years ago, in a cold morning, I saw two birds on a rock: one black and one orange.

At the first glance, I couldn't see any special characters of the black bird in a dark environment.
Just remember that it was a little bit bigger than the orange one. I thought it was a myna-like species.
Can somebody help me on this bird id?

At that moment, I didn't pay much attention to that bird because I was attracted by another bird,
a beautiful Orange-headed Thrush, jumping on the same rock.

Thank you very much.
Rgds.
Alan
