Dan Jones posted the note below with links to two of his great photos of
the odd bird which no one has explained. I do disagree with Dan that the
orange / red on the head was pollen or a sticky substance, I believe it
was the color of the feathers, much too even and nothing stuck to it,
the bird is clean. But what is it? The size is Chipping / Clay-colored
size.
Thank you, Dan for posting the photos.
