Observation details
Wow…awesome to watch these birds! Appeared in the sky just after sunrise. Great looks as they were circling right above us and over the creek marsh. Cool to watch them swoop under the bridge multiple times and even fly through it a few times! Observed well with a few other early risers! Small, compact bird. Short squared off tail. Orange rump. White belly with pale, orange throat. Dark forehead. Photos to be added.
