Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Mary Jo Hartogh is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include John Hartogh and Annjean Hartogh. | Elimination of similar species: Compared it with a bald eagle and red-tailed hawk which does not have large reddish patches where the legs would be held in flight, nor the outline inside the wings in the same color. A red-tail might have one or the other white, but not both tail and head in my experience. Also the red-tail usually has a darker shade of brown on its middle belly, if it has color there. The rough-legged has a dark tail band which at that proximity should have been seen and its color is also a darker brown. | The original documentation form event lasted from 08:25:00/08:26:00.
Occurrence Status present
Field Number 1988-01
Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: The Dakotas, Nebraska, and Minnesota were getting hit with a terrific snowstorm that morning. It was overcast and snowing lightly. The sun would have been at our back as we were headed east. No time for binoculars!
