Other observers include Tom Staudt, Ruth Williams, Mona Brown, and Noel Brown. | Elimination of similar species: too clingy on the breast and to be a loggerhead shrike - also, the mask stopped at the bill too chunky to be mockingbird - also heavy hooked bill rather than slender one. | The original documentation form event lasted from around 09:00:00/09:03:00.
