I don't know if this is the reason the sighting is hidden from eBird or if there truly is some debate about its lineage behind the scenes. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Kudos again to Liam Hutcheson for finding the bird and alerting Tweeterdom!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cara Borre</div><div class="">Gig Harbor WA</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><a href="https://youtu.be/Fz11rT-RUBs" class="">https://youtu.be/Fz11rT-RUBs</a><br class=""></div></div>
