Observation details

Perhaps an area of hybridization or at least a not clear understanding of presence of Gray-cowled from recently split out Rufous-naped. Though there is some "dirty" appearance to the crown and hindneck, it certainly does not possess a nice tidy rufous nape patch as I suspect is identifiable to Rufous-naped. From these photos it seems that plumage characteristics fit for Gray-cowled thus the reason for selection as that species as opposed to the "slash" as noted in the local area eBird filter.
