Observation details
Unexpected, rare for Torrance & an absolute stunner. Unmistakable adult bird with beautiful blood red head & contrasting black and white back & wings. Heard distinct harsh repeated calls from across pond shortly after arrival & then seen well in cottonwoods. Eventually moved around pond & I left it over by library in cottonwoods on west end of park. Fairly approachable & very vocal. Able to show it to a few local resident non-birders who appreciated the bird! Photos & audio.
