The bird was not promptly reported due to homeowners not wishing to have its location announced I have read that this variation is called schizochroistic. I am curious to hear of others experience with such color variation either in Varied thrushes or other species. Photographs of the bird can be seen at <a href="https://ebird.org/checklist/S109924997" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="enhancr_card_3183188193">eBird Checklist - 22 Apr 2022 - Clallam - 1 species</a>.
