Just to elaborate on my previous reply to Tony, there is an interesting page
on the Island Thrush on Wikipedia at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_Thrush

*The Island Thrush, (Turdus poliocephalus) is a common and highly variable
forest bird from the thrush family. Almost 50 subspecies have been described
from Taiwan to Samoa, and exhibiting a great deal of variation in plumage.
Several subspecies are threatened and three have already become extinct.*
