I never saw it. But read on. I came back in the early afternoon, with bike. Near the NW corner of the pond , the LBH materialized out of thin air at 2:45PM. It must have been hiding in vegetation or it flew in while I was being distracted by a dark harrier perched in reeds in the Moffett Channel. It foraged along the north edge of the pond, then flew north into A5 (according to my map) at 3:00pm. If that was not enough, back home, between trips for the heron, I noticed a pale dove sitting on a nearby house. It had a thin dark partial collar on the hind-neck and dark primaries. It then flew right over me, fast and too low for bins, but I did see a dark 'H' at the base of the undertail. Eurasian Collared-Dove seems reasonable. After leaving my airspace it would have crossed Jacklin Road, just west of Arizona St, headed south. Have similar birds been seen in the south bay but not reported?
