The Red-legged Thrush is a rare vagrant to North America from one of the Caribbean islands countries. Although, the distance is not very far to the islands and that thrushes are long distance flyers, it has not been seen very often in the US states. This beautifull colourful thrush is a common bird seen on the different islands and it is a native bird of Cuba.
