U.K. Turdus Thrush (1 Viewer)

Black-throated Thrush Found on Shetland recently. Could there be any influence from Dusky or Naumann’s?

The combination of broad pale supercilium and dark coverts are wrong for fem/1st-w Black-throated Thrush and do suggest influence from either Dusky or Naumann's, probably the former, but am I seeing some reddish brown tones or is this artefact? Suggest it would probably require more than just this record shot to be certain. The bird is a close match for some of the supposed atrogularis x eunomus hybrids in Laurent's post 2. https://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=316417
