| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Jim Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: Much too small for a Short-eared Owl, flight pattern different. Only other small earless owl, the N. Saw-whet, is smaller, juvenile pattern is different, and doesn't have long legs like this bird. | The original documentation form event occurred around 12:15:00. |
