Media notes
Perched in a tree near the Sabinal River allowing us to approach within about 24m, where I took this photo. I am not used to seeing one in this habitat, instead of sitting on power lines and poles. We thought it was a COBH as the bay color in the wings was not clear until I processed the photo to lighten the colors from the backlight. Reviewer noted the correct species. We were walking along the remnant of CR 364, which once went from SH 187 to a crossing of the Sabinal River. Now, the road simply ends. Linda spotted the bird sitting and we watched and went closer, stopping when we had a window for a photo. The best photo is included. The bird never left the perch. The time of this sighting was about 17:15. Camera information should be in the metadata of the photograph, including the time and GPS coordinates.
