Media notes
this looks like a first-year bird to me, though I'd be subject to correction on that as I don't have a lot of familiarity with GCSP
Observation details
Bird was very furtive at first, then became rather cooperative. Once it perched up, it stayed there for at least a couple minutes, just watching me. Before that, it was three or four minutes hopping around low in the oak brush and generally being very difficult to get good looks at it. Note golden crown with gold color spilling over into lores a little. Throat patter evident, but not strong.
