Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Laurence L. Falk is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include six people in the Christmas Bird Count group and five other people. | Elimination of similar species: The basic question is whether these were RC or GC Kinglets. These displayed no yellow on the crown or the wings. They did not display the more contrasting light and dark of the GC. They did not have the lighter eyeline. | The original documentation form event occurred around 10:45:00 for several minutes. |
