The documentation form by Ray Cummins forms the basis of this record. Another documentation form by Bill Heusinkveld and Marjorie Heusinkveld were submitted. Other observers include Bob Bergstrom, Sr., Mark Hoffman, and Bob Bergstrom, Jr. | Elimination of similar species: Sprague's Pipit was begrudgingly eliminated for the following reasons: 1) Bold white eyebrow line. 2) Dark gray back pattern, there was no tan or brown in the back 3) Thin black malar stripe 4) Bird was in short grass and not particularly wary. | The original documentation form event lasted from 14:05:00/14:35:00.

|
512 SW 60th St., Des Moines, Polk Co., IA
|
Rather open urban area on southwest side of Des Moines in bottom land. There is a large deck behind the house with hummingbird feeder hanging from the eve and crab apple tree behind the deck and adjacent to the garage. A large vacant field is behind the property.
|
The documentation form by Thomas H. Kent is the earliest and the one that forms the basis of this record. Other observers include Don Stolz, Carole Stolz, Eugene Armstrong, Eloise Armstrong, Pam Allen, Reid Allen, Ann Johnson, Jim Dinsmore, Jim Fuller, Bob Cecil, and Aaron Brees. | Elimination of similar species: My experience and references of Buff-bellied Hummingbird suggest that the cinnamon color, extent of this color toward the throat, cinnamon rump/back, and white eye spot do not fit this species. I believe that the features shown in the photo of the Arizona 'mystery' bird in Field Notes are a perfect fit for the Des Moines bird. I do not know of specific information on bird trafficking in Iowa. We had a Yellow Grosbeak north of Des Moines in December 1990, the origin of which was never explained. | The original documentation form event lasted from 07:50:00/08:40:00.
