Jamaica birds: Thrushes




White-chinned Thrush

White-eyed Thrush
These are two Jamaican endemic Turdus thrushes. The White-chinned is more obvious and a bit bolder (though both are rather shy) and the lawn photos were on the grass in the garden of Mocking Bird Hill Hotel, Port Antonio, a birders' favourite. White-eyed is a more elusive bird, I found and I only really got to see the white eye properly on a handful of birds. The rather dodgy pic was the only one I got and in very low light, so please forgive me...
