- Comments: ""Mega" for bk and the state. Sniffed out JM/DG, discovered by ???  Seen toodling around the grassy area on cove south of the piers. Yellowish malar, hard to discern in strong light. White flanks, not buffy. Some personal photos show horizontal barring in central tail feathers. Others show slight barring in outer white tail feathers that EAME doesn't have. Mostly undiagnostic pics."
