I have a few birds from my vacation in Oregon that I am not sure of their id's. I am thinking a Veery or some kind of Thrush. Another maybe being a juvie Towhee? I was hearing A lot of Veerys during my week long vacation.

Maybe a juvenile Veery

Are these the same bird? The first definitely looks like a juvie Veery and I think that's what you have in the second shot.

Life List: 586

Latest birds: Northern Goshawk, Greater Sage-grouse, Sage Sparrow

2013: 446 species

Thanks BillyPilgrim!

I am still not so sure, another person suggested the first bird could be a juvie Swainson's thrush. Mainly, because the Veery is more of a rare bird seen in the Columbia Gorge in Oregon where I saw the first bird.
