Observation details

When I looked at the bird through the window I thought "Hermit Thrush". But, it lacked the heavy breast spotting I would expect and I did not see the typical tail pumping, or cocked tail posture. Also the bird was not the right color for the Olive-backed Swainson's Thrush Upon review of pictures, by myself and Stan Walen's this appears to be a Russet-backed Swainson's Thrush
