    Details

    Immature male in an interesting degree of plumage. Showing mostly black feathers of a full adult but with lots of gray splotches remaining. I couldn’t find any other breeding season records anywhere in Brookline. Possibly a disperser, but worth checking again. At the first boardwalk to the north of the pond.
