Observation details
Associating, perhaps, with WCSP, but probably just in the same area. One pond is dry with just a drip, and the other pond is green and wet. This bird was at the dry pond near the drip. Distinctive face pattern, rust red wing and cap, and gray brow that I misidentified until a reviewer set me right. Really bad photos due to distanace, angle, light (and mainly just poor phoographer), but I sensed I could not improve my position and should get while the get’n was good, and sure enough, as soon as I stepped out for a better shot it left the wire and went back into the dry pond somewhere.
