Observation details
Small flock was by the bridge of this trail in the water along the bank. I'm from the east coast and my initial thought was Rusty Blackbird. It showed up as 'rare' for this area so had second thoughts. After reviewing the Sibley's book it says Rusty and Brewers look very similar but I believe that is in breeding plumage. Fall plumage still really feels like a Rusty Blackbird to me. After ebirds team review, it has been confirmed they were immature male Brewer's so i've updated the posting. Thanks e-bird team (Katy Duffy and Michael O'Brien) for all the help on this one!!! :)
