Observation details

I believe this is a Swainson's thrush due to the buffy eyering/face and olive-colored (as opposed to rufous-colored) upper tail. Seen moving between the Osborne garden and the overlook. Totally silent. This seems like a very late Brooklyn record, with only one individual at Coney Island Creek park in 2022 being observed later in the year.
