Is This A Swainson's Thrush? (1 Viewer)

[Jonathan J. Weber]

Is it common for fall migrant thrushes to linger at the same location for several days? I have observed this loner from dawn to dusk feeding by the brush piles in my yard where I live on the south shore of Lake Ontario in Niagara County, New York for over a week.

From earlier sightings here, it appears to be a Swainson’s Thrush. The photos in the link below of that individual were taken 29 September 2018. Your thoughts and comments would be most appreciated.

Hermit Thrush - note the bright rufous tail.
