Observation details
Continuing at same location Levi Plummer found it at yesterday. If accepted this will mark a first ABA record. A black hole of a bird, sucking in all the light around it. Dark iridescent blue plumage. Bicolored bill, top mandible slightly darker grey, lower mandible a pale fleshy color. Flew into mesquite line at about 2:30pm then proceeded to skulk through the dense grass mat. Doc photos.
