Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Jim Sinclair is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: This bird did not have the large headed, large billed 'predatory' look of a Glaucous Gull. The overall lightness and the lack of dark primaries and no tail band would eliminate Thayers Gull. | The original documentation form event lasted from 10:54:00/10:56:00.
Occurrence Status present
Field Number 1996-19
Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: Lighting was good - distance estimated at 220 yds. 10x42 field glasses
