| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Steve Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: All loons were eliminated by the long neck, unmarked back, bill shape and color, and white flanks. Clark's Grebe was eliminated by the darker back and dark cheek which included the eye. | The original documentation form event lasted from 12:20:00/12:30:00. |
