The documentation form by Matthew Kenne is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include his family. | Elimination of similar species: [...] The thick, blunt bill shape and larger bill size eliminates warblers and vireos, and it was a larger bird than those by comparison with the Cardinal. Female Scarlet Tanager is eliminated by the lack of olive tones to the plumage, especially in the wing, which was the same color as the back and not darker. The reddish tinge to the yellow on parts of the bird is consistent with some female Summer Tanagers, but not Scarlet Tanager. | The original documentation form event lasted from 17:05:00/17:06:00 on November 5, 1999 and around 07:50:00 on November 7, 1999.

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.
