Distance and rolling fog made photography difficult.
Деталі спостереження
Continuing (pair?) of adult alternate plumage birds hanging around the arctophila ponds near the end of the road. Exquisite alternate plumage, intense rosy blush to the underparts and soft bluish-gray upperparts. No black visible in the wing (pale whitish primaries). Head rosy with a black necklace wrapping up around the back of the neck. Bouyant flight almost Tern-like, but with shallower wingbeats than the Arctic Terns also in the area. Distinctive white pointed tail visible in flight. Overall mass seemed comparable to an American Golden-Plover, but with much longer wings and stouter overall height. Short raspberry colored legs. Bill and eye black. Bill relatively short and slim. Silent, though one appeared to be either long-calling or yawning at one point, but could not hear anything given the distance and wind. Seen in flight briefly, but mostly seen sashaying around the edge of a pond picking at invertebrates.
