Scientific name
Its scientific name means: do (Latin) Turdus = thrush; and rufi, rufa; rufus = brown, red; in ornithology rufus, rufa and rufum cover a wide spectrum of colors from yellow, orange, brown, red and purple. and venter, ventris = belly, belly; - (Thrush with a brown belly).

Characteristics
It measures 20-25 centimeters in length and the male weighs 70 grams and the female, 80 grams.
weighing an average of 68-80 grams. It has brown plumage, with the exception of the belly region, highlighted by the rust-red color, slightly orange, and a dark yellow beak. It has a bright yellow eye ring and a light and dark striated throat. Tarsi and gray-pink feet.
It is a highly appreciated singing bird, which resembles the sound of a flute. Sings mainly at dawn and in the afternoon. The song serves to demarcate territory and, in the case of males, to attract the female. The female also sings, but at a much lower frequency than the male. The song of the orange thrush is partially learned, with geographic lineages of types of song, and if the bird coexists from a young age with other species, it can be influenced by their song and start to have an “impure” song. In addition to the beautiful song, the bird also uses other sounds: the common call is a “ga… ga-gá'-ca” resembling a chicken, usually followed by decreasing territorial whistles and ending in longer notes than at the beginning (fi fi-fíu-fíu-fíu-fíu-fiúu-fiúú).

SPECIES WITHOUT SEXUAL DIMORPHISM


Food:
Its nutrition is basically composed of insects, larvae, earthworms and ripe fruits, including cultivated fruits such as papaya, orange and avocado. He eats coconuts from various species of palm and introduced species, such as oil palm. It spits the stones after about 1 hour, thus contributing to the dispersion of these palms, a behavior also shown by other thrushes.

Reproduction:
You can make your nest on roof eaves. The construction of nests can become confusing on certain occasions: when the chosen place is formed by spans between numerous equal supports of a roof, the orange sabias can build several nests at the same time, to confuse the spans.


Habits:
It is common on the edges of forests, parks, yards and wooded urban areas. He lives alone or in pairs, jumping on the ground. In drier regions it is somewhat restricted to areas close to water.
It is a bird that coexists well with environments modified by man, whether in the countryside or in the city, as long as it has opportunities to find shelter, food and water.
In nature, it is found in couples and family groups when in the process of creation. It is an open-air bird, preferring to live on the edges of forests, orchards, scrub, around roads, squares and yards, always close to abundant water. It is a territorial bird: it demarcates a geographical area when it is in the process of reproduction and does not accept the presence of other birds of the species. He begins to sing even before the day is light. The orange thrush lives up to 10 years in the wild. He likes to stay in closed and dark trees, or in slightly open trees.

It overflows areas flooded by rivers with territorialist birds such as bem-te-vi and suiriri, it cannot stand, and attacks them. Curutié also accompanies these mixed flocks.


Geographic distribution:

Present from Maranhão to Rio Grande do Sul, it is the best known thrush in the Southeast, being less numerous in the Northeast. Migrates to warmer regions in winter. Also found in Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay.
