Observation details
Continuing, first seen feeding in field just west of ponds with large flock of AMWI before flying back to the ponds. Gorgeous male, bright red head with cream colored crown, pale bluish-white bill with black tip. Flanks more silvery-grey than AMWI, which made it stand out even when it's head wasn't visible. Dull reddish breast, black rump. Called frequently on the ponds, a somewhat wheezy, single note call very different than the AMWI.
