and an infuriating female from the narcissus-elisae-owstoni complex on the northern bend at lunchtime today.
This bird had an olive-green back, a rufous tail, most strongly marked on the uppertail coverts, a pale yellow wash from the chin to the lower belly (but not the undertail coverts, which were white) and greyish scalloping on the sides of the neck and (more faintly) upper breast.
There was a hint of rufous in front of the eye and a slim pale eye-ring which was stronger below the eye than above.
There was no obvious wingbar and the wingtip did not look pointed.
This group is really difficult, but any thoughts on this admittedly patchy and brief description would be most welcome.
Cheers
Mike
