| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Jim Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: The lack of wing bars eliminates Western Tanager and the lack of black wings eliminates Scarlet Tanager. I was puzzled by the orange under the tail since none of the field guides I had showed this but I found that in Pyle et al. 1987 this color pattern is mentioned for Summer Tanager and not for Hepatic Tanager, the other species I considered a remote possibility. | The original documentation form event occurred around 08:30:00. |
