Tickell's thrush (Turdus unicolor) is a passerine bird in the thrush family Turdidae. It is common in open forest in the Himalayas, and migrates seasonally into peninsular India, Nepal and rarely to Bangladesh.

The name commemorates the British ornithologist Samuel Tickell who collected in India and Burma.[2]

Characteristics

Males of the Tickell's thrush have uniform blue-grey upperparts, a whitish belly and vent. Adults have yellow beak and legs while it may be darker in juveniles. There is a yellow eye-ring which is thinner and fainter than the Indian black bird which is usually bigger in size. Females and young birds have browner upperparts.[3]

Behaviour and ecology

Tickell's thrush builds nests from April to June using mostly dry grass.[4]
