Observation details
Continuing mega found earlier today by Jim Wilkinson. Sticking close with the two KILL. When we arrived it was on the far side of the pond, then flew to the close side and landed out of view. Mowed west foraging in bean field with the KILL mostly out of view and then eventually flew back closer to pond. Striking bird, especially in flight with black and white very rounded wings. Two crest feathers, two black eye lines, big eyes, some light rufous on cheeks, metallic green back with light feather edges creating a scalloped look, black breast, white underneath. Photos.
