Wallace Coffey reports that "One of the interesting observations today was that the apparent blunt to rounded wing tip, that we believed we saw earlier this week, was simply not present." Now if the excellent birding eyes and brains of Wallace, et.al., can be misled about what they are actually looking at, imagine what errors are made those of us who are mere mortals?! Imagine further what the implications are for those details we just "remember"! __________________________________________________ I have been lucky enough to find an incredibly wonderful bird.
