Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Thomas A. Hoffman is the only one reviewed and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: [...] I am relatively sure, from its actions, its size and shape (not heavy like a typical Pomarine, nor as small as a Long-tailed - it was close to the size of the Ring-billed Gull), and place (Parasitics are more common inland than the other two), that it was a Parasitic Jaeger. | The original documentation form event lasted from approximately 10:00:00/10:45:00. |

Event Remarks |
Viewing Conditions: [...] These two flew almost directly over my head (right into the sun) not 50 feet above me. [...] It was too far away to get any identification with my 7-power glasses, so I returned to the car and drove to the west shore to try for a better look with 10-power glasses. |
