This section is from the book "The American Bird-Keeper's Manual", by James Mann. Also available from Amazon: The American Bird-Keeper's Manual.
This is the largest of its tribe, but it is far inferior to the former in song. Its notes are few, but musical, and pretty loud. In Britain, some years ago, it was rather a rare bird, but it is now more abundant. It is distinguished from other Thrushes by its size, and by the pure white on the under part of the wing.
Diet the same as the former.
There is little difference between the male and female, in size, or markings. The male is rather a brighter yellow on the lower part of the body.
Found throughout Europe, Resident.
