| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the earliest and the one that forms the basis of this record. Other documentation forms by Susan Barrell Grove, Peter C. Petersen, Mark Proescholdt, Beth Proescholdt, Jim Fuller, Thomas H. Kent, Pam Allen and Reid Allen, Jeff Dankert, and Ann Johnson were submitted later. Other observers include Russ Widner, Kelly McKay, Tim Schantz, Gerald White, Eloise Armstrong, Eugene Armstrong, and Fred Lesher. | Elimination of similar species: The long legs, upright posture, and long neck were clearly features of a whistling-duck. The extensive rufous color on the belly, dark back edged with tawny, lack of any white on the upperwing, and dark bill and legs eliminate Black-bellied Whistling-Duck. | The original documentation form event lasted from 13:30:00/14:10:00. |
