    Details

    Big surprise especially for time of year! First heard rattle call at K2 and looked up to see flying right overhead. Watched in bins as it flew off past East Point, then it circled back and flew back in front of us, and then we lost it as it flew low over Canoe Island. May have dipped down somewhere in the marsh or kept flying. Good look in bins of pale bird with long tail, some black seen on the wings, and heard rattle call 3-4 times.
