  6. Another highland endemic from the Salamanca Mountain Range in Central America: male Sooty thrush (Turdus nigrescens). This black male is quite similar i appearance to the European blackbird (Turdus merula).

    High-elevation thrush species are often dark or black, which presumably provides some thermal advantages in these cold environments.
