cmclee 0 Posted July 22 (edited) I photgraphed this bird at the Shoreline Park in Mountain View last week. It looks to be a chick. Not sure what specie. Can anyone help? Charles Edited July 22 by cmclee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie Spencer 1,329 Posted July 22 Welcome. What state or province is Mountain View in? @The Bird Nuts, is it possibly just molting? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking at range maps, it appears COGOs aren't supposed to be there in the summertime (assuming this is in California). I'm thinking it is in such bad shape it can't move far. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
