A medium-sized, medium-brown denizen of open woodlands; found feeding both in the trees and on the ground. Best distinguished from similar Cocoa Thrush by its bold orange-yellow eyering and its somewhat pale bill. Song is a series of sweet up-slurred and down-slurred whistles. Most common calls, which are quite different from those of Cocoa Thrush, are an inflected catlike “mew-uh.”
