Observation details
If not correct, will be soon corrected, SO here goes. Drove over to the other side of the reservoir, across from small pond just beyond the 'horse' farm and this solo bird was in a large puddle directly in front of my car. Didn't leap away when I parked, and only saw it once I was just about to open the car door. Froze, slowly leaned over to get my camera, and had to shoot thru the windshield knowing it'd fly the coop if I got out. Anyhoo, this species was the first to jump in my head...........not always a good sign! Anyhoo, the show was over within 30sec. and it flew across the road to the grassy field near the pond, not to be seen again.
