Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Francis L. Moore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: No other owl that I know of sounds like this. No other animal or bird sounds like this bird either, that I know of. After writing this description I listened to recording and it sounded very similar to this bird. | The original documentation form event lasted from 08:20:00/08:21:00.

Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: It was a great day but viewing conditions did no good here since I only heard the bird. Bird sounded like it was probably 100 feet away or little more.
