- Comments: "continuing in enclosed area by the willoughby avenue entrance on the east side of the park. beautiful male in breeding plumage, was foraging in the grass very cool and collected and only retreated to the nearby bushes when a runner, dog or maintenance car would go by. second time seeing this species ever, it was great!"
