Observation details
2 individuals flew in from north lake area, landed in euc by nature center for a bit, then flew off into the driving range. Red limited to forecrown area with no red extending up over eye or onto crown on both birds. One bird showed distinctly dusky nares, the other also appeared to have dusky nares but not as obvious as the other. Due to overcast conditions difficult to assess if red shade on forecrown was deep blood red like Lilac-crowned or the brighter red of Red-crowned. Given the dusky nares I'm putting both down as Lilac-crowned but would have liked to study both in better light.
