Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Charlotte Scott is the earliest and the one that forms the basis of this record. Other documentation forms by Tom Johnson and Ray Cummins were submitted later. Other observers include Dot Cornett, Mary Montgomery, and Kay Malmberg. | Elimination of similar species: We considered Pectoral Sandpipers but decided they (the pectorals) were more slender, longer legs. Also considered Sanderlings, but thought they were lighter and smaller than our birds. | The original documentation form event lasted from 07:45:00/08:45:00 intermittently. |
