Observation details
Better looks desired. Around Shelter 10 briefly. No red seen on nape but backlit and somewhat obscurred by foliage. Photos do show a bit of red color on the bottom of the white throat though, indicating Red-naped (fide. C. Marantz). Subsequent photos from other birders shows no red on nape indicating YBSA, so this bird appears to show features for both species, or hybridization.
