Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Ann Johnson is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Aaron Brees and Jim Sinclair. | Elimination of similar species: Female bluebirds are similar in size and structure and have similar eye rings. The lack of any blue on the wings and tail and the presence of white outer tail feathers eliminates all bluebirds. | The original documentation form event lasted from 14:45:00/15:45:00.

Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: It was a bright, sunny day. I observed the bird at nearly every angle through 7X42 Zeiss binoculars and a Kowa 824 scope. At its closest, the bird was about thirty feet away and was out in the open.
