Observation details
Immature female mixed in with the large COEI flock. Hanging around the north jetty across from where we stood. Golden tan coloration with an even paler face. Nearly a 1/3 smaller than surrounding COEI. Dome shaped head, slightly upturned gape resulting the appearance of a wry smile, and all black bill lacking the horn-colored tip of female COEI. Difficult to see and photograph since there was a swell so we would get 1 second views followed by 5-6 seconds where the bird was hidden behind the waves. Photos are terrible but diagnostic.
