With Contigo lid, washed up on shore, for scale.
Possible first Ohio record
This bird seems to be right on the edge of American vs Hybrid and is currently under review locally.
I was trying to catch a single picture of these birds and finally was able to get a few atop a cactus feeding on the buds. They had gray feathers with a white tip on the bottom of their wings.
Captive/‘local’ pair at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
Something wrong with this poor little thing. I was able to get close and probably would have been able to touch it.
