White-necked Thrush

Turdus albicollis

The White-necked Thrush (Turdus albicollis) is a medium-sized songbird found in the forests and woodlands of Central and South America. It is characterized by its striking white neck and underparts, contrasting with its dark brown upperparts. This thrush is known for its melodious and varied song, often heard during the breeding season. It forages on the forest floor for insects, small fruits, and seeds. The White-necked Thrush is an important seed disperser in its habitat, contributing to the regeneration of plant species. While it is not currently considered globally threatened, habitat loss and fragmentation pose potential risks to its populations.
