Nice photo but this is a Grey-backed Thrush, first winter male

On Brown-headed Thrush the rufous underparts would be more extensive, not almost incomplete in the centre of the breast. Also the head would be brown not grey and the streaking on the throat tends to have a brownish tinge.

Best regards

Michael Leven

Thanks for the correction.
I can see the differences now.
