Dorchester decorator and part-time bird watcher Lawrence Dagnall discovered the White's Thrush in a Weymouth garden.
Sadly, the bird had perished when it collided with a window.
The identity of the White's Thrush was confirmed by the warden at Portland Bird Observatory, Martin Cade.
It last appeared in Dorset more than two centuries ago.
