Observation details

Edited on 1/20/2022 based on reviewer's helpful comments: continuing hybrid observed several times in the area since September with characteristics of both RSHA and RTHA: streaks of red in portions of upper tail; some red on shoulder; belly band. Audio includes calls of hybrid (not ID'ed by Merlin) intermediate between RSHA and RTHA. Fortuitous, nearby adult RSHA also on audio allowing comparison. RSHA call ID'ed by Merlin and matches reference recording of RSHA.
