Observation details
Continuing stakeout #300 on my CT list From my blog - My next stop was Little Pond in the White Memorial in Litchfield. With excellent directions I headed to the gallinule spot, set up the scope, and almost instantly found the bird swimming at the edge of the cattails. I was pretty lucky on this one since others had mentioned it took up to 2 hours to get the bird in view. A distant but identifiable phone-scoped picture (with the scope at 50X) is inserted below – you’ll likely need to click on the picture and then expand it to see the bird. The pale gray throat and head indicates it’s an immature bird.
