Yigüirro

is the Costa Rican Spanish name for the English-named Clay-colored Thrush. (my gallery link) This is the bird that gently wakes me up each morning singing, and, as tradition has it, he/she is singing in the rains for the beginning of our winter or rainy season in May.

  1. It hops like a robin, sings like a robin and looks like a robin —- so we call them robins😂. So much easier than Clay colored thrush. They are in our yard all day. We love them.
