Hi. Revisiting an old identification from 2015 as a beginner. I had this down as Swainson's Thrush, but would appreciate second opinion.
Brooklyn, Prospect Park, May 23, 2015. Seen with three other similar thrushes in undergrowth, so poor lighting. I suppose this could even be Gray-cheeked / Bicknell's, but I discounted that because seeing four Gray-cheeked/Bicknell's scooting around under the same shaded pine shrubs seemed astronomically unlikely.
