Observation details
**very rare; found by Rick while he was photographing potoos; many thanks for the heads up! Amazing and unexpected! We watched it for about an hour, mostly as it perched quietly on snags around pond but also as it hunted over nearby field. Made unsuccessful swoops at two Northern Potoos, a skunk, and a Common Pauraque; also appeared to drop on something on the far side of the pond but didn’t seem to actually eat anything. Many photos. First record for the ranch and first in eBird in Jalisco since 1940 (amazingly, also on April 6)
