Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include James J. Dinsmore. | Elimination of similar species: The combination of size, dark coloration, and white in the primary shafts eliminated the possibility of a juvenile gull. Despite the great distance and lack of a good view of the wing pattern, I believe the bird was a Pomarine Jaeger. | The original documentation form event lasted from 13:45:00/14:43:00.
Occurrence Status present
Field Number 1996-53
Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: Viewing conditions were fair with mostly cloudy skies and the sun to our backs. Estimated viewing distance was 750m. I used a 20-60x spotting scope.
