Observation details
YBLO x COLO hybrid? When I first saw this bird from a distance I assumed it was a Common Loon because of an apparently dark bill. Upon getting closer I noticed there was some yellowish color to its bill, mostly toward the tip. It appears to have an intermediate neck patch. I'd be glad to hear anyone's thoughts on this bird. Photos included.
