[birdky] Help needed with bird ID

Hi all,

A friend has e-mailed me a picture of a bird seen at a feeder in Kentucky w=
hich he can't ID. I have looked at it, and I am baffled too, my best gues=
s is a brown thrasher, or possible mockingbird, in a very aberrant plumag=
e, maybe mid-moult, though the head is almost bald. Does anyone want to t=
ry and ID the bird if I forward them the JPEG image?

Cheers
Ian
