Tom McCabe asked me to post this bird he’s seeing at the “back pond” at
Esther Simplot, the pond that parallels Veteran’s Pond. Unusual to see this
bird in town per se; I might see it a little more often at Lucky Peak Res
and in the “canyon section” of the greenbelt, upstream of the Diversion Dam,
but downtown is unusual and Tom says he’s only seen a few along the
greenbelt in his birding career.

Thanks for calling, Tom =)
