Observation details
The bird was first observed in brush along the fence on the upstream edge of the roadside pull-off right where the canyon meets Carretera 16. I was able to come to my senses quickly enough to snap a few "panic" photos of little more than diagnostic quality before the bird evaporated into the dense undergrowth. I was unable to share the find with the others until we encountered the bird hours later skulking in the natural channel near where it first takes on a deeply eroded character, several hundred feet up-canyon from the road.
