Help please - can anyone tell me if this is a female Rufous or a male juvenile Allen's? I was able to safely free this bird after it flew into the house through an open door. This was photographed in august of 2002 on the Northern California coast. Any details you can observe to help with the ID would be greatly appreciated. Thank you - Del Pruett
