Observation details
Flagged as rare, this bird was first seen in low flight over water and identified by its large size, dark plumage with conspicuous white patches on the secondaries and heavy wing beats. After it was relocated in the river the large head with a flat crown and sloping forehead and white teardrop mark behind the eye also were evident.
