Two populations reliably distinguished by multiple plumage differences, but intergrades are common across a very wide area. “Yellow-shafted” (north and east) and “Red-shafted” (west) differ in plumage colors but not in voice or habits. This bird is Yellow-shafted as the yellow feathers are visible in flight mode.
