| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Bill Gilbert is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Dale Fye and Paul Regnier. | Elimination of similar species: Long-tailed Duck is the only bird (duck!) with a white head. (It surely wasn't a Bufflehead). | The original documentation form event lasted from 10:00:00/10:30:00. |
