Hey thanks, Fyn. My wife saw this bird lying in the road motionless and she was going to kick it off the road because she doesn't like to see these things run over and it blinked. She picked it up and it showed no signs of life. She brought it to me and as I held it, it started to stir. We took it into a small wooded area, photographed it and released it. It flew up to a branch and perched. One of those happy endings you don't often see. Thanks, again, for the ID. We were just curious.
