Observation details
**Very rare -- westbound fly-by during early-AM. Flying with 2 RTLO; at times appearing a bit bigger than them, but at other times not so much. Stronger wingbeats than RTLO, more rigid and deeper than COLO. A well-proportioned bird with neck appearing relatively short, occasionally held above rest of body. Hooded look evident at first glance, even at great distance through bins. Closer inspection with scope (ca. 40x) showed strong demarcation between hind/foreneck, rounded and contoured appearance to head/neck, fairly smooth/non-bulging undercarriage, cold appearance overall with stark dark/light contrast. Pitiful photos.
