Songbird with a spotted breast (6)

I believe the answer is:

thrush

(Other definitions for thrush that I've seen before include "Bird - fungal disease" , "Throstle" , "Small songbird" , "Infection of the mouth and throat" , "Mouth fungus or songbird" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
