Description

HY Male or Female. Uncommon to rare for this site. First heard calling then visually confirmed. Though I tried to get a good picture of the bird for days, none of them panned out. This was my best shot.

I didn't hear it call, but when the bird was observed, it had a teardrop-shaped eye ring. This is the most common empid at Shady Creek.
