Observation details
Male and female (third heard calling on other side of channel). Seen mating few times and female out in the open here (25.5356857, -80.3248188). Bicolored bill, buffy wash on underside, uniform brownish back, black mask, and lacking rufous on wings. These birds can be seen with a little visual effort and no need for play calling. Especially now during breeding season I highly recommend NOT using playback as this can disrupt behavior and lessens your chances of seeing their natural interactions. Such cool birds! Pictures
