Observation details
Fly-by heading west, low over water; medium-distance, but good views through scope. Immediately struck me as being very dark. Proportioned much like RTLO with head not much thicker than neck; slimmer head/bill, lighter build than Common. In scope, quite blackish above; solid blackish flank band (not thinning out as on RTLO) separating white belly and underwing. Nearly solid dark neck, somewhat paler on nape, contrasting with white chest, white chin, and thin pale strip down center of throat (mostly obscured from somewhat dorsal angle). Sketch done a short time later.
