I just had my first opportunity to photograph a gray-cheeked thrush, in migration on the Ohio shores of Lake Erie. Since both thrushes are seen in NYC parks during spring migration, I thought I'd share my photos of both species side-by-side. (The Bicknell's photo from the mountains of Vermont a few years ago.) Not sure if I can describe species differences from these photos.
