Re: [Maine-birds] Need Help with Thrush ID

With thrushes, paying attention to the bird's movements can help id them. As you were watching it, did the bird pump his tail? If so, then what you saw was a hermit thrush.

Hello Everyone,

I took these photos at Vaughn Woods in Hallowell this morning. I'm not sure what type of thrush it is; I'm torn between a Swainson's and a Hermit. Can anyone help identify and help clarify what features would distinguish the two?

Many thanks,

John
