District of Columbia State Bird - Wood Thrush The common thrush of eastern woodlands, the wood thrush is boldly marked with dark spots on its white breast. Its rich rust-brown back, wings, and top of head are more reddish than those of any of the other thrushes, and it's been said that the wood thrush is itself bolder than its relatives, save for the American robin. Found in woods, parks, and even wooded suburbs across the eastern United States, the wood thrush is declining in some areas due to lack of habitat. The wood thrush's song is a series of flutelike phrases ending in a musical trill. The call, often used when the bird is alarmed, is a rapid pit-pit-pit-pit.
