The Ticking Doradito, just over a decade ago it was split from the Warbling Doradito which looks like it but has a very different song. They leave Chile in winter. Presumably they go to Argentina. Yet on territory the odd "tick" sounds of this species give it the memorable English Name.

Unlike most Neotropical thrush, the Black Thrush has delayed plumage maturation, exhibiting a brown, female-like alternate plumage before reaching definitive plumage.

In partnership with Aves Honduras (ASHO), we have plenty more info on this unique bird at BOW!
