I think this is a thrush, but it doesn't really resemble anything in my book. Fall is a difficult time for IDing!
I couldn't get a photo in good lighting, but the bird appeared quite rusty colored along the back and tail.
CLOSED: What bird?
I hope so. It sure doesn't look like a Hermit.
Ditto to Swainson's Thrush - note the distinct 'spectacles'.

I'm not that knowledgeable about birds so hopefully someone else will pop in with a correct ID for this one.
Well, there's one of our pro identifier's now! Thanks Resin ... my guess was a good one for a change, LOL.
Yea! Another lifer, and new bird #53 since Sept. '05 creek rehab!
Thank you!
The "spectacles" are what made me believe it was't the Hermit.
