Other observers include Darwin Koenig. | Elimination of similar species: Loggerheaded Shrike; my bird seemed large and big billed. The small mask, light colored distal area. In flight the white rump(which is dark in the loggerhead), and the bird's lethargic behavior proves it was a Nortern [sic] Shrike. | The original documentation form event lasted from 08:00:00/08:10:00.
