Observation details
Stakeout bird that has been here for a few days. Eating acacia seeds, often hovering in the air to grab the seeds. I am very familiar with this species from the East Coast and Texas. Juvenile foraging at the west end of the maintenance yard between the Murphy Windmill and the Soccer Field. Probably female based on untapered shape of p10. Note remnant pink gape flanges. This is an uncommon migrant in California. Found 07 September 2017 by Brian Fitch.
