Observation details

First reported earlier this morning. Some yellow in malar, limited white outer tail feathers in others’ photos. Dorsal pattern a bit more washed out than Eastern. Digiscope videos in the field with my scope, then later recorded it’s calls, however I had the BP4025 stereo mic, not one of my more directional shotguns. Considerable background noise on the recordings, however the calls are audible and diagnostic for Western.
