White’s Thrush or Scaly?

10,000 Birds

On a recent visit to Tokyo, Japan, I came across a beautiful bird that I took to be a White’s Thrush , Zoothera dauma. toratugumi , the northerly form of the migratory species that occurs in Japan should be the obvious choice, but by this logic, all such thrushes seen in Japan (apart from Amami Island) should be White’s.
