| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Scott Rolfes. | Elimination of similar species: The color and wing crescent eliminates all larids except skuas and Pomarine and Long-tailed jaegers. Skuas are easily eliminated by their larger size, heavier bill, and more prominent white patches on the wings. Long-tailed Jaeger is eliminated by the presence of a white crescent on the upper surface of the wing. Pomarine Jaeger can be eliminated by its larger, heavier body size, more prominent white crescent on the wing, presence of white greater underprimary coverts, larger-headed appearance, heavier bill, and general lack of rufous color on the body. | The original documentation form event lasted from 16:22:00/16:51:00. |
