Nilgiri Thrush

Zoothera neilgherriensis

The Nilgiri thrush (Zoothera neilgherriensis) is a member of the thrush family. The sexes are similar, 27–31 cm long, with black scaling on a paler white or yellowish background. The most striking identification feature in flight is the black band on the white underwings, a feature shared with Siberian thrush. The male has a song which is a loud, far-carrying mechanical whistle, with 5-10 second pauses between each one second long phrase twee...tuuu....tuuu....tuuu.
