White-chinned Thrush
Turdus aurantius Gmelin, JF, 1789
Turdidae — Thrushes
White-chinned Thrush, Turdus aurantius, is a thrush of Jamaica in the family Turdidae. It is found across the island and breeds there, using moist lowland forest, moist montane forest and heavily altered former woodland. The bird was first described in 1789 by Gmelin. It is a medium-sized thrush with similar-looking males and females. A white chin, a small white wing patch and an orange bill help set it apart from the only other thrush on Jamaica, the white-eyed thrush. Breeding takes place from May to August.
