Observation details
First Taos county eBird record. Observed closely at 20' for at least half an hour, unwary bird. I was able to rule out Short-billed Dowitcher by voice, this bird made a single 'keet' call on 3 separate occasions. Redish color extended down to lower breast, barring on tail continues up into white rump. Data for adjacent Colfax county shows this to be the peak week of spring migration for this species.
