One of the SCTA was a female showing an extremely obvious white wing bar =
and white tips to the secondaries and tertials very similar to WETA. The =
median coverts did not have any white or show any wing bar at all, =
unlike WETA.  Throat, chest and belly were uniformly yellow, going in to =
the rump.  There was not a noticeable contrast between the back and nape =
either, it was mostly gray/green.  This bird was interesting based on =
the amount of white in the wingbar but after further examination it was =
most likely SCTA.   Reference Sibley Guide to Birds, page 463 for a good =
depiction of SCTA showing weak wingbar. =20
