The documentation form by Jim Fuller is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: Other large falcons are not generally this light in color, and do not display the black underwing areas this bird had. | The original documentation form event lasted from 15:30:00/15:30:30. |

| Event Remarks |
Viewing Conditions and Optics: The bird was first about 125-150 yards away, but continued to get farther away until it was out of sight approximately a quarter mile distance. The day was cloudless, and I was looking east to southeast in the later afternoon. Optics were Swift Audubon binoculars (8.5 x 44). |
