Veery, Catharus Fuscescens

Another LBB Thrush: Little Brown Bird

Like the Swainson's Thrush, Hermit Thrush, and Wood Thrush, a Veery's drab brown appearance in no way prepares you for the traditional Thrushy flutiness of its song. A down-turned, slightly depressed song in comparison to the raw beauty of a Swainson's or haunting loneliness of the Hermit and Wood Thrushes, the Veery nonetheless weaves a complex tapestry of beauty.
