American X Black Oystercatcher

(Haematopus palliatus x bachmani)

Description:

The black “drips” from the dark bib onto the white belly show these birds are hybrids. Our first landing on our way to the Archipielago de Revillagigedo was at Isla San Rogue, a seemingly barren rock of an island near the central coast of Baja California.
