The Island Thrush is a medium-sized bird from the thrush family. It lives only on a few islands in Japan and is distinguished by the dark plumage of males and a bright orange beak.
The Ryukyu thrush differs from other thrushes with the dark head coloration of males and a limited range. It disperses plant seeds and eats harmful insects, helping maintain balance on its islands.
