Comments

Foraging in the small pond on the east side of the delta. Still with red legs. Bill not as red as it maybe could be earlier in season. White feathers coming in on forehead. Dark carpal-bar visible, outer primaries darker gray. It didn't look super-in-the-moment, kind of dazed as it later sat on beach and contemplated miles of fish-less lake in front of it.
