Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by David L. Dankert is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: Observing the bird when perched length was approximately three times the size of the A. Goldfinch that was perched close by. Body mass was about the size of an A. Robin. [...] Some field guides suggest confusion can be made between juvenile Scissor-tailed Flycatcher and Western Kingbird juvenile but the head of the bird I observed was whiter. | The original documentation form event lasted from 12:40:00/13:00:00.
