Rock Wren on dam talus-like fill rock
Observation details
Reported on 4 Oct 3017 by Ashley.Casey. I arrive before sunup on 5 October when it was misting and was foggy. I had to add some contrast to the photos and some fill light to be able to get a good look at the wren. I followed it as it would disappear under that rocks and then after a while resurface nearby only to head down under the rocks again. The lack of much streaking on the breast likely means it is a juvenile bird or possible a sun-bleached adult. The lack of much flecking on the back with some black flecks with a row of white dots on the wing resembles the immature plumage.
