Observation details
Great find by Mark Nenadov 2 days ago! Refound this morning atop a dead tree in the treeline north of Vollmer Centre. Observed it for about 30 minutes before it took flight to hunt low above the soy bean field below, giving excellent views. Beautifully contrasting plumage. All-white head and breast with white extending right down to the undertail coverts, white lesser and median underwing coverts to the carpal joint. Dark blue-grey to black wings, back, tail and remaining underwing coverts. Tail deeply forked as the species name suggests. County lifer. Pics attached.
