Great Thrush
Turdus fuscater d'Orbigny & Lafresnaye, 1837
Turdidae — Thrushes
Great Thrush, Turdus fuscater, is a thrush of the Andean highlands in western Venezuela through Colombia, Ecuador and Peru to western Bolivia. It is the largest thrush in South America, and its size helps separate it from other plain, slaty thrushes across its range. It uses moist montane forest, high-altitude shrubland, forest edges, open woodland, farmland with scattered trees, parks, backyards and urban areas. It is found mainly above 2000 m, though its range extends from 1800 to 4000 m.
