You have excluded the .Trashes directory but not any of the content that it contains. When a user puts a file or directory in the Trash from a mounted rw device the file or directory is moved to the .Trashes directory on that device. The OS creates a directory within .Trashes named with the user's uid with the content to be trashed. So, either create mutiple PATTERNS or unlink everthing inside the .Trashes directory before runnning rsync.

unlink
unlink(2) System Calls Manual unlink(2)NAME
unlink - remove directory entry; delete file
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
The system call removes the directory entry named by the path name pointed to by path.
When all links to a file have been removed and no process has the file open, the space occupied by the file is freed and the file ceases to
exist. If one or more processes have the file open when the last link is removed, only the directory entry is removed immediately so that
processes that do not already have the file open cannot access the file. After all processes close their references to the file, if there
are no more links to the file, the space occupied by the file is then freed and the file ceases to exist.
RETURN VALUE
returns the following values:
Successful completion.
Failure.
is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If fails, is set to one of the following values:
Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix.
Write permission is denied on the directory containing the link to be removed.
The process does not have read/write access permission to the parent
directory.
The entry to be unlinked is the mount point for a mounted file system.
path points outside the process's allocated address space. The reliable detection of this error is implementation dependent.
Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the path name.
The length of the specified path name exceeds
bytes, or the length of a component of the path name exceeds bytes while is in effect.
The named file does not exist (for example,
path is null or a component of path does not exist).
A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
The directory containing the file to be removed
has the sticky bit set and neither the containing directory nor the file to be removed are owned by the effective user ID.
The named file is a directory and
the effective user ID is not a user with appropriate privileges. Some file systems return this error whenever the named file
is a directory, regardless of the user ID.
The directory entry to be unlinked is part of a read-only file system.
The entry to be unlinked is the last link to a pure procedure
(shared text) file that is being executed.
WARNINGS
If is used on a directory that is not empty (contains files other than and the directory is unlinked, the files become orphans, and the
directory link count is left with an inaccurate value unless they are linked by some other directory.
If is used on a directory that is empty (contains only the files and the directory is unlinked, but the parent directory's link count is
left with an inaccurate value.
In either of the above cases, the file system should be checked using (see fsck(1M)). To avoid these types of problems, use instead (see
rmdir(2)).
