The Himalayan Thrush, also known as Plain-backed Thrush, is a medium-sized thrush found across the Himalayas. It typically features olive-brown upperparts and a paler, often plain or faintly spotted, belly.
Where to spot
Widespread across the Himalayas and associated mountain ranges in Central and East Asia, including China, India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Myanmar, inhabiting temperate forests and bamboo thickets.
How to spot
Look for its plain olive-brown back and paler underparts, often with subtle spotting. Scan the forest undergrowth and ground. Listen for its characteristic thrush-like calls and song.
When to spot
Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Observable year-round, but location varies by season due to altitudinal migration.

This thrush often undertakes altitudinal migrations, moving to lower elevations during harsh winter months and returning to high-altitude breeding grounds in summer.
