Blue Rock thrush

[(Desmond Allen)]

This species  reached New Guinea and is a regular in Wallacea according to
my nice new Birds of Wallacea　but presumably though the chestnut bellied fo
rm philippensis. It does like rocky coastlines , breakwaters and harbours ,
so a ship assisted passage would be highly credible IMHO.
 One of the blue bellied forms certainly reaches well inland in Spain for
example.
