Observation details
A few photos posted at http://www.nazaudubon.com/sightings/viewthread.php?tid=4885 but we will submit more photos and full descriptions to the Nev BRC. This bird lacked the characteristics typically shown by intergrades - reddish breast, green sheen on the crown, black/curled/spiked central uppertail covs, gray feathers on the sides, blackish undertail coverts, purplish sheen on the speculum (speculum was teal), etc. Revisiting this bird after years more experience and learning about variation in Mexican and we now feel this is well within range of variation of this taxon.
