Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Jim Fuller is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Peter Ernzen. | Elimination of similar species: Shorebird possibilities with long decurved bills are Whimbrel, which is generally much smaller with a relatively longer and thinner bill. Long-billed Curlew also has a much longer and thinner bill, and is generally lighter in color. | The original documentation form event lasted from 07:30:00/08:05:00.

Event Remarks Viewing Conditions:Viewed with 8.5 X 44 Swift Audubon binoculars, mostly when flying, and KOWA TSN-4 (20-60X) telescope, both on tripod and car window mount at distances of 100-500 feet. I was always looking some direction of east, and the bright early morning sun made it difficult to get color details.
