Observation details
While glassing approximately 300 TRSW for VGSW, I noticed this hold out. White forehead was prominent. There was a light rain and it was very overcast making light very poor. Because of the poor light, the rest of the bird appeared dark overall except the underside was light. As I watched the bird it began preening and I noticed the distinctive light rump patch. One photo is attached. Remaining photos were heavily backlit making the bird virtually indistinguishable from the TRSW.
