| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Thomas H. Kent is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: The face pattern made me think of Smith's Longspur, but the chestnut color and black bib excluded this. Chestnut-colored Longspur has a yellow or buff throat and more extensive black on front. The color and face pattern do not fit Horned Lark or American Pipit. Horned Larks were present on the flats and I saw pipits later at another location. | The original documentation form event lasted from 17:20:00/17:21:00. |
