Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Thomas H. Kent is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: I judged birds to be small peeps. Too small and gray to be Pectorals. Dunlin would be more likely, but bills not long enough or droopy + body too small. Did not have brown color on bill to suggest Least. Date would be second latest for Iowa. | The original documentation form event lasted from 10:50:00/11:45:00.

Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: overcast, no wind. 100-200 yds (guess), 20x Scope and Questar.
