Why is thrush called thrush?

A thrush is called a thrush because its eyes are white, and a line extends all the way to the neck, just like an eyebrow painted with an eyebrow brush.

Thrushcross's head, neck, back and abdomen are all brown. There is a broad brown longitudinal stripe in the center of the feather and a white longitudinal stripe on each side. These longitudinal stripes seem to be carefully painted on the eyebrows, so they are called "thrushes". Thrush is a kind of bird with lively nature and good at imitating human voice, which also has a high position in China's ancient literary works. For example, the "purple tone" in the Book of Songs is considered to be the cry of a thrush.

Thrush birds are distributed in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Shaanxi and other places in China. At present, thrush has become a favorite pet bird of many people, but its number has gradually decreased due to over-capture and habitat destruction, and it has been listed as a national second-class protected animal.
