Field Notes

Description:

Warm brown in color, with yellow bellies, and vibrant yellow tips on tail feathers.
Small red tips (on males I think), and interesting black and white "mask" around eyes.
Has small crest too.

Habitat:

Drinking and bathing with robins, sparrows, and northern cardinals in a puddle of neighbor's yard.

Notes:

First and only time I have ever seen this bird in my area.
