Hello, tweets.

I realize no one else saw this bird, but you may have looked at its
photos. The pale bunting a bunch of us saw at Harrison Lake, BC, back
in November has been judged a hybrid Snow X McKay's by Kevin Winker
and Dan Gibson, two undoubted experts on Alaskan birds at the
University of Alaska Museum.

I have put photos of the bird on the museum web site:
