User's notes

This bird flew into a window and didn’t survive. Efforts to identify were unsuccessful, despite the distinctive yellow eye ring, and the tan & brown feather colouring that’s consistent across all body feathers. The exceptions to this being the barred tail feathers, and the uniformly brown wing feathers with some off-white colouring at the ‘elbow’.
