Records Committee review for rare bird sighting of Iceland Gull at Credit Island, 1993	Administrative records Field notes	Bird watching Ornithology Ornithology--Societies, etc	1993-02-14	1995-07-08	Rare birds documentation form	Records Committee review for an Iceland Gull at Credit Island in Scott County, IA on February 14, 1993. Includes a record review document with votes and a documentation form submitted to the committee.	Johnson, Ann	Iceland Gull	Credit Island	Credit Island, Davenport, Scott County, IA	Frozen lagoon with small amount of open water	The documentation form by Ann Johnson is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. \| Elimination of similar species: Although the duskiness on the face had somewhat of a "hooded" effect, any of the hooded gulls could be eliminated by the bill structure. The pale primaries eliminated all but the white-winged gulls - Glaucous, Iceland, and possibly Thayer's. Glaucous can be eliminated by size and bill color. Thayer's was eliminated because of: 1) overall gray-white appearance; 2) the lack of any secondary bar; and 3) the checkered tertials. Problems with the record are the duskiness on the face and the narrow dark edging to the outer primaries from below. These two characteristics may well indicate an Iceland/Thayer's intergrade. \| The original documentation form event lasted from 13:15:00/13:40:00.	Iowa Ornithologists' Union \| MS 166	11	4

Iceland Gull	Saylorville Dam	Saylorville Res., Polk Co.	large reservoir	The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the earliest and the one that forms the basis of this record. Other documentation forms by Thomas H. Kent and Jim Fuller were submitted later. Another observer includes Chuck Fuller. \| Elimination of similar species: The three most similar species are Herring, Thayer's, and Glaucous gulls in first-basic plumage. The latter was eliminated by its larger size and longer, heavier, bicolored bill. First-basic Herring Gull is much darker overall with primaries darker than the upperwing coverts, a pale window on the inner primaries, and rectrices that are all black. First-basic Thayer's Gull is the hardest to eliminate. Thayer's always show primaries that are as dark or darker than the rest of the wing. The dark tail band of Thayer's is always darker than the mantle and apparently matches the color of the wingtips (Kaufman 1990). \| The original documentation form event lasted from 11:30:00/13:10:00.

Other observers include Kay Niyo, Curt Nelson, Jan Walter, Chris Wood, and Jim Sandrock. \| Elimination of similar species: [...] We saw this gull twice in our viewing time and debated if it was an adult Kumlien's Iceland Gull or an adult Thayer's Gull. It was an adult Kumlien's Iceland Gull because a Thayer's Gull has much more blackish coloration at the primary tips and more dark coloration at the primary tips than the Kumlien's which has grayish markings on the primary tips and less dark-colored markings at the primary tips overall. Also, a Kumlien's Iceland Gull shows the almost white wing tips like we saw with a little grayish markings on some primary tips. \| The original documentation form event lasted from approximately 15:00:00/16:15:00.

The documentation by Gerald White is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Betty Wood and Keith Blunt. \| Elimination of similar species: [...] The bill appeared smaller than the bills of near-by Herring Gulls. The bird size was near the same size or smaller than the Herring Gulls. [...] I eliminated Glaucous Gull because it would have been larger and heavier looking and the bill would not have been all dark. \| The original documentation form event lasted from 11:50:00/11:52:00.
