CLOSED: Crissal Thrasher?

Another from Big Bend

Curve-billed Thrasher. I know not of a Crissal Thrasher. My books are Eastern only. Even Sibleys

Donna, I've seen the Curve-billed Thrashers out there and that's what I thought this was when I was shooting it, but it has a reddish patch under the tail. My Sibley's and my National Geographic books both show a Crissal Thrasher with red under the tail. I dunno.

Crissal is right - note the black-and-white moustachial stripe, and the red-brown undertail. Curve-billed is plainer.

Thanks Resin. That one's a first for me.
