--Apple-Mail-458--110630419 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Jim, Thank you for the pointers. Definitely black tip, lots of light colour at the proximal end. What light colour I'm not sure. Sorry, I didn't observe the wings to notice their extent. The head shape more resembled Iceland, going by Sibley. I hope someone will sight this bird in the area who can help identify it.
