The Hermit Thrush is the smallest member of the thrush family seen in North America. This hardy thrush is the last thrush species to migrate in the fall and the only North American thrush, that might stay inside the boundaries of North America, in the winter months. This thrush displays a rufous back and tail feathers. It has been reported as a very rare visitor to Cuba.
