Observation details
*rare; HY female (small size, comparable to m BHCO on direct comparison, & very restr white tips to alula and pp covs). Feeding in Panicum amarum w/one molting m juv BHCO. Face pattern seemingly brighter and better defined than that of bird found and photographed by Pat Palladino, Bob Kurtz, Bob & Edith Wilson, et al. across the inlet at Fire Island earlier in a.m. (also feeding in P. amarum). Having finished a futile search for that bird, finding nothing more notable than a DICK feeding in a different patch of Panicum, I decided to check a few more patches at Captree--voila! Copiously ph; seen and ph by many other observers later in the day.
