Observation details
Continuing rarity originally found May 13. Like Black Duck but bill was pale olive with extensive black around the gape. Head and neck light buffy brown with no obvious streaking on throat. Back dark brown with clean, intricate mottled pattern. On the extended wing, speculum was dark blue or purplish, with narrow white trailing edge on the secondaries but no white on the greater coverts. Legs orange, both hind toes intact and no bands or other signs of captivity. I did not see it fly but others reported seeing it fly.
