Candidate Bicknell’s?

I have a Gray-cheeked type thrush at Lake Mohegan in Fairfield that strikes
me as a candidate for Bick. Very warm brown back and tail, extensive yellow
in lower mandible. However we obviously need audio and it hasn’t responded
to playback of either species yet.  But it looks interesting enough that
it’s worth investigating.

Hooded Warbler that was seen in this area late this morning is singing now
from across the river.

N end of the lake accessible from the large parking lot on Morehouse
highway- E side of the lake past the meadow.

(41.2078195, -73.2565003)

Right down by the river.
