- Comments: "This bird was a surprise! It was taking a bath in a shallow, still section of the Salina’s River. It was very accommodating, letting me take a bunch of photos while it bathed. It had a very bright rufous crown, very prominent white supercillium, unmarked chest, belly and flanks. Photos will be posted soon."
