Unknown Thrush

Photographed on Lamma today. Could it be a juvenile male Japanese Thrush? Neil.

First winter rather than juvenile, but yes, male Japanese Thrush, I think.

Lovely shot.

Japanese, but an adult female based on the extensive spotting on flanks and breast, no ghosting of male breast pattern, grey-brown rather than black/blackish upperparts. Also no retained juvenile tertials or greater coverts.

Nice photo.
