San Cristobal thrush

Turdus ludoviciae

The San Cristobal thrush (Turdus ludoviciae) is a medium-sized songbird found on the San Cristobal Island in the Galapagos archipelago. It has a distinctive olive-brown plumage with a pale underbelly and a yellow bill. This species is known for its melodious and varied song, which it uses to communicate and defend its territory. The San Cristobal thrush is primarily insectivorous, foraging in the dense undergrowth of the island's forests. It is also known to consume fruits and berries. Due to its restricted range and habitat loss, the San Cristobal thrush faces conservation concerns.
