Brown-headed Thrush 赤胸鶇

This first-winter thrush was still present at SKAR this afternoon.

I wonder if anyone has any further ideas on its identification given the thoughtful comments already made.

What is the difference in colour between the underwing coverts of Eye-browed & Brown-headed Thrush? What is your reference for this difference?

Many thanks.

I've checked Brazil and you're right: there is a clear difference.

However, I'm not sure how useful this difference (assuming it is accurate)is under actual field conditions. Must be very difficult to see & assess acurately given the normal shyness of thrushes.
