Observation details

I wrote "white chin and throat; orange wash across breast; thin dark streaks mostly confined to sides of breast but extend across top of breast in a narrow band just below white throat - a lot of unstreaked orange below; rest of underparts white; note black streaks (feather shaft) evident on undertail coverts; rufous cap quite bold; strong white eyebrow that flares somewhat posteriorly; white eyering quite evident; streaky brown auriculars." After writing these notes I got up to look at the upperparts again, but soon realized the bird had vanished. Yamada-san didn’t know where it was and Leo was looking elsewhere and didn’t know it was gone. Doug Willick soon showed up and we continued looking for awhile but no sign of the bird - amazing. (Learned later that another observer saw it again, but this bird turned out to be a one-day wonder.)
