fellow birders, some ID advice would be appreciated! found this american coot in California; we usually have red-shielded coots here, but this one appears to be white-shielded. just want to make sure my ID is correct before I submit since eBird flags it as pretty rare

hiked 8 miles last week (unsuccessfully) looking for a sharpie and lark sparrows, only to find them this morning by complete accident
