Media notes
A view of the Black oystercatcher on the island in Shoreline Lake in Santa Clara County, Ca.
Observation details
The bird was medium sized with an overall black body. It had a medium-large sized, straight, upturned lower tipped, solid, red-orange bill (indicating it's an adult) and a red-orange eye. I was unable to properly see the color of the legs but it was clear that they were lighter (a pink-yellow?). The bird seldom moved except to tuck in its bill in an attempt to rest.
