Observation details
Continuing birds on the west side of Obsidian Butte. All birds showed relatively long pointed wings and tail (in flight), and heavy, gray, dagger-like bills. All also showed mostly brown heads and necks, and brown upper parts with white patches on the nape and a white base to the tail. Some also showed large white patches on the lower back and/or a narrow white border to the gray facial skin. All had white under parts, white under wing coverts bisected by a dark bar along the axis of the wing, and grayish, totipalmate feet.
