Observation details
adding this after sending pics to a few people... did not appear to have an obvious collar and was in basic plumage already, so I took a video to document it. After it landed on the water, it dove and I did not relocate it (there were many boats around where it landed), although an hour or so later I may have seen this bird heading west in the distance (from behind). MAMU/LBMU type - darkish underwings, white underside, dark upperparts - seems to have a solid contrast between dorsal and ventral sides with no 'spur' or 'collar'
