Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Josh Obrecht is the earliest and the one that forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Dave Obrecht. | Elimination of similar species: Common Goldeneye. I eliminated this species out because the bird I saw had only a little white on the speculum and a large yellow eye with a small pupil. The common Goldeneye has a lot of white on the speculum and a large pupil in the eye. | The original documentation form event lasted from 16:00:00/16:15:00.
Occurrence Status present
Field Number 1999-08
Event Remarks I was inside of the visitor's center and the lighting inside and outside was good. I estimated the distance between the bird and myself as being about 25 yards. I used binoculars to get a better view of the bird.
