Cliff Weisse -- Accept

Description is brief for a first state record but in hand photos leave no doubt of the identification.  Recording of song was also useful in confirming the identification.  I also saw this bird on several occasions and heard its alarm call several times.

The extensive documentation offered irrefutable evidence of a Wood Thrush, so I was completely convinced.

Photos of bird in hand show diagnostic face pattern, rufous coloring and bold spots.

Although the photos are diagnostic, the observer included a good write-up in support of the record.
