Observation details
* MEGA. Found by Matt Hafner on 8/30 at same location. The bird flew to the berm to feed on insects alongside PESA and smaller peeps. In comparison to PESA it appeared slightly larger and darker. The cap had distinct rusty coloration in the right light. The bill was all black and slightly drooping. The legs were greenish in comparison to PESA with yellow legs. The breast markings extended into the belly and along the flanks and there were dark streaks in the undertail. There are some upperparts with rusty highlights. I did not hear the bird vocalize. One purported field mark is a distinct eye ring but that was not noted in the field nor photos.
