White-throated Rockthrush

From Wikipedia

Chats are a group of small Old World insectivorous birds formerly classified as members of the thrush family Turdidae but now considered Old World flycatchers.
The name is normally applied to the more robust ground-feeding flycatchers found in Europe and Asia and most northern species are strong migrants. I have split the birds photographed in its Genus where to it belongs if there are at least 2 photographs. The genera with only 1 photograph are combined for now in Various

There are around 332 different species in this group of which I have photographed so far 127 different ones. In case of differences between male and female birds I have added both if available

Below you will find the genus in alphabetic order.
