Cocoa thrush

The cocoa thrush (Turdus fumigatus) is a resident breeding thrush in South America, from eastern Colombia south and east to central and eastern Brazil, as well as on the Caribbean island of Trinidad and some of the Lesser Antilles.

Sexes are similar, but young birds are duller, having the scalloped underparts common in immature thrushes.

The song is a musical warble, and it also produces a variety of typical thrush chuck and chak calls.

A medium-sized disjunct population lives on southeast coastal Brazil; the narrow coastal range is 300 km wide and extends from Alagoas state in the north to southern Rio de Janeiro state, about 2300 km.

The cocoa thrush mainly feeds on or near the ground on insects, especially ants and their larvae, earthworms,[2] other invertebrates and some fruits[2] and berries.
