Observation details
Interesting bird found by Dario Taraborelli this morning. First cycle male without its gorget-- just one or two feathers coming in. Almost entirely orange back with a few green flecks, notched tail feather (R2). Different vocalization than Allen's, Merlin was able to successfully identify its vocalizations, differentiating from nearby Allen's. Vocal and active, feeding exclusively on the purple tubular flower (in a photo below) in the southernmost part of the succulent garden, here: 37.766576, -122.472518. Peter Pyle offered Dario some thoughts on age/molt, included in his checklist, here: https://ebird.org/checklist/S165731810
