Author's comments:
Fui un domingo y el posterior viernes, y se encontraba exactamente en el mismo lugar, vecino de unas parejas con pichones y ambas veces solo los observé de bastante lejos. Si se mira con atención, a su derecha hay un adulto con un pichón de Papúa al cual se le ve la cabecita, y a la derecha de todo, otro pichón bien al descubierto.
