| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation letter by Dana Dinnes is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Another observer was Larry Brown. | Elimination of similar species: [...] The neck was too thin to be that of a pelican. The necks and legs were too long, and the call was much different, than that of snow geese. | The original documentation form event occurred around 09:00:00. |
| Occurrence Status |

| Field Number |
1998-24 |
| Event Remarks |
Viewing Conditions: Clear [...] A few minutes later they passed only about 40-50 ft. directly overhead of us. Since their flight was rather slow and labored, we had a good view of the underside of the group of birds. |
