Shows white in thighs.
Observation details
As per eBird reviewer: Small amounts of white in various places on the hybrid (the white "thighs" are visible in your photo) and there are small white marks down the front of the neck (which are hard to see). Also the bird is uniformly colored, lacking the contrasting darker purplish head and neck of a Little Blue. And the bill is very long and heavy.
