The documentation form by R. Craig Hensley is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: The pied-billed grebe is the only other relative that is commonly encountered in Cass County. This species was ruled out due to body size and proportions and the different beak. | The original documentation form event lasted from 08:10:00/09:00:00. |
