Observation details

One candidate. Darkened lores and post-ocular stripe. Distinctly orange legs. Thick breast band and stocky build. Small white intrusion of the breast band which has been remarkable consistent with this individual throughout its molt. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/646780167 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/642729075 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/642260415 I did my best with photos but the bird never once came close during entirety of observation window.
