Identification
hermit thrush
Catharus guttatus
Caption
The call of this bird is nothing like the song, in fact it a bit harsh - rather like a Spotted Towhee's mew (that's a warbling vireo in the background). You'll notice that this bird's song is made up of similar short phrases, raised and lowered in pitch with each iteration.
