| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Francis L. Moore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Lynn Heaps. | Elimination of similar species: The only similar species seen in vacinity [sic] and that would prefer being close to this habitat type would be the Willow Flycatcher (E. traillii) which is ruled out because of the 'che-bek' call. | The original documentation form event lasted from 07:30:00/07:45:00. |
