- Comments: "*Rare - a first for the garden. Light gray body, gray wings with large golden patch, dark throat, white eyebrow and mustache, dull yellow cap. Was moving around frantically in heavy rain (and we'd left the camera in the car). Daisy tried to digibin, but it was too fast and too rainy. We went to the car and got umbrella and camera to try again. What photos Tripper got were in manual because of autofocus issues. From spotting to identifying, keeping track of, re-finding, and documenting, it was quite the journey, and a major team effort :
