Observation details
Continuing bird. Much better looks this time, and an absolutely amazing experience. Smaller than rbgu with dark eyes, “cute” appearance, and dainty bill. First flew over around 10:31am, circled and eventually landed on shore near the boat ramp. Foraged along the shore for awhile and then made several passes directly overhead. Took a foray north into the northern finger of the lake but eventually returned. Surprisingly dominant over rbgus despite its smaller size. Calls were higher pitched than rbgu. Photos and audio to be added.
