Creamy-bellied Thrush
Turdus amaurochalinus
The creamy-bellied thrush is 22 to 25 cm (8.7 to 9.8 in) long and weighs 52 to 73 g (1.8 to 2.6 oz). The sexes have the same plumage. Adults have a mostly olive-brown head with black lores and a brown-streaked white throat. Their upperparts, wings, and tail are the same olive-brown as the head. Their breast and flanks are usually grayish buff that becomes creamy white on the belly and undertail coverts. (Some individuals have pure gray instead of grayish buff underparts.) They have a dark iris, a yellowish bill when breeding and a darker one otherwise, and drab brown legs and feet. Voice: The creamy-bellied thrush's song is a "simple, little varied, yet musical series with short notes, like tjurre, wurr, tjeeh, and tjut-tjeé". Its calls include a "sharp pok", a "psiip in or before flight", and as a warning a "sharp kitten-like pchuo".

Ring Ouzel
Turdus torquatus
The ring ouzel is 23–24 centimetres (9.1–9.4 in) in length and weighs 90–138 grams (3.2–4.9 oz). The plumage of the male of the nominate race is entirely black except for a conspicuous white crescent on the breast, narrow greyish scaling on the upperparts and belly and pale edges to the wing feathers. The bill is yellow and the legs are greyish brown. The female resembles the male but is browner and with a duller breast band. Juveniles are like the female, but with a faint or non-existent breast crescent. Voice: The male ring ouzel sings from a low perch or occasionally in flight. The song consists of a repetition of 2–4 plaintive fluty notes, tri-ríí, tri-ríí, ti-ríí with pauses between repeats. The call is a loud tac-tac-tac, becoming harsher if the bird is alarmed. The contact call is a soft cherrr in flight. Males sing most frequently at dawn and sunset.
