I have two photos of Thrush.  The first was taken at Black Hill Regional Park Nov 5 2006

The second was taken at roughly the same spot today

The first bird I called a Hermit the second a Swainson.  This was based on time of year.  What I am calling the Hermit was fairly out in the open.  What I am calling the Swainson's was fairly secretive under heavy foliage.

The problem is that I really can't tell a difference between these two birds.  They both appear to have heavy spectacles.

Did I get the ID correct or incorrect?

Thanks,
