Hi- I will grant you that the ovenbird is a "different" type of warbler but it does share some of the same characteristics as other warblers- --the beak is warbler-like and not thrush-like; --the song is not thrush-like at all (not warber-like either); -- it also looks more like the warblers than it does thrushes in body shape and in other characteristics; I am sure that others can point out other things- I am sure that a DNA test would show this as well.
