Observation details
I walked out along the raised walkway to the small pool at (34.686945, -120.587289). There I made a recording of what I thought might be a Virginia Rail vocalizing. The sound was coming from the east of my location, near the belt of tall trees that runs north-south there, or possibly from the area of the pool that the aerial view in Google Maps shows northeast of the trees. After getting feedback from experts I’m changing the identification to Yellow-breasted Chat.
