This bird is the fifth in my Uncommon Bird series...
The Blue-eyed Shore Shadow
Field Identification: As expected, this bird is reported to have blue eyes and dark plumage, although clear observations of this bird are rare.
Habitat and Distribution: This bird is most often found in wetlands and shallow shore lines. Large groups of Shore Shadows congregate just beyond the easily visible distance and nearly always in front of a rising or setting sun.
Field Notes: Limited field work on Shore Shadows has been recorded due to the birds uncanny ability to constantly move just out of the limits of observation.


I think I might have seen a few of these this past week. Hmm!!
