What is a "veery"?

A veery is a medium-sized thrush found in eastern North America during its breeding season, which occurs from April to August. The bird has a reddish-brown back, a buff-colored throat, and a white belly with faint spotting. Its song is a series of flute-like notes that descend in pitch, often described as a "veer" sound, from which it derives its name. The Veery is known for its secretive nature and often prefers to remain hidden in dense underbrush, making it difficult to spot despite its distinctive song. During migration, the bird travels to Central America and northern South America, where it spends the winter months in forests and woodlands.
