Bicknell's Thrush

Rimmer CC, Mcfarland KP, Ellison WG, Goetz JE. 2001. Bicknell's Thrush. Birds of North America. 591:1-28

The nasal, gyrating song and plaintive calling of Bicknell's Thrush are familiar to few birders or ornithologists. The species' remote, inhospitable montane and maritime forest habitats, its penchant for dusk and dawn activity, and its reclusive behavior underscore its status as one of the least known breeding birds in North America. It is also among the most rare and, possibly, most threatened.
