Abstract
Swainson’s Thrushes (Catharus ustulatus) breed in the Northern hemisphere and migrate to the Southern hemisphere in winter. Some individuals of the subspecies C. u. swainsoni regularly winter in the Northwest Argentinian Yungas and Chaco serrano. Here, I report the first observation of a Swainson’s Thrush in Buenos Aires city, in a very anthropogenic environment and different from the ones where the Swainson’s Thrush can be typically found in Argentina.
