Observation details
Two birds encountered on the water were apparently too well-fed to fly, but dove repeatedly during the 10 minutes we observed them at close range. Identified by brownish cast to upper parts, cocked tails, lack of white in front of eye, and by vocalizations (a trill rather than the twittering calls of Scripps's) which were given repeatedly.
