| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: The only species of confusion was Franklin's Gull. The larger size, wing pattern, tail pattern, and bill size and shape all eliminated Franklin's Gull, many of which were nearby for comparisons. | The original documentation form event lasted from 09:40:00/10:32:00 and 13:45:00/14:20:00. |
