I took this photo on June 29th at La Center Bottoms. Sorry, not great quality.
This bird was low in the bush (maybe 2' above the ground) at the extreme range
of my lens. Watched it for about 30 seconds, most of the time with its back to
me, when its twin joined it, coming up from below for about 5 seconds. Then
they both flew into the grass underneath the bush, not to be seen again. Long
green tail, bluish gray back from top of head to tail, darker on wings,
completely white neck and underneath. Gray bill, black eye. Hard to tell if
there was any eyebrow or markings around eye. Please see link below for pic:

I'm an avid but novice birder so any help with identification would be most
appreciated.
Thanks,
