Observation details
Known at this location. Small, long-billed, chicken-like bird ran from the trail's edge to the tangled brush. Traipsed back and forth, eyeing us, offering brief but diagnostic views through the branches. Vocalized repeatedly and loudly, a sharp "eek!" and flicked its tail. Black and white stripes on flanks, reddish bill, gray face, rufous plumage, and white at the edges of the tail. Repeated the behavior when we came back the same way, suggesting it may have been acting as a distraction
