Shot this guy on a small stream, at about 3000 meters. Close to Mexico City.
Not sure what it is, looks familiar... but cannot place it.
Thanks

Louisiana Waterthrush would be my call

One of the two Waterthrushes - from the bright supercilium, I'll go for Louisiana, but could be wrong.

Agree with Niels & Nutcracker. The broadening of the supercilium and the whitish unspotted throat are pro Louisiana features. The streaking on the underparts whilst very prominent is broader and sparser then NW. The habitat is mentioned as a stream, and LW prefer running water in my experience.

It's a Louisiana Waterthrush for sure.
