I was surprised at how easily I got on this bird. When I arrived at 4:08 to its previously reported location, the bird flew from a tree at me, and I had to duck to avoid it. It landed in a smaller tree (33.679775, -117.796139), allowing me to get spectacular views from just a few feet away. It was calling intermittently as well and would frequently fly a bit from a branch to catch insects. Had its namesake chestnut sides, as well as a yellow head and dull green wings.
