Written descriptions of behavior, plumage, and condition of bare parts are especially important when the possibility of prior captivity is considered; in all four cases, the birds' behavior appeared normal, and there was no evidence of unusual wear, coloration, or damage to their plumage and bare parts. The dates are congruent with this species' recent pattern of vagrancy to the Midwest. | Accepted | ||

Three birds seen as fly-overs in early March would have been a record early date by more than two weeks, suggesting thorough documentation was needed. The description of a small goose was simply too brief and MOURC concluded it was insufficient to rule out several more expected species. Alternative identification consideration was only given to Sandhill Crane and Canada Goose, but not more likely species such as Cackling Goose or other similarsized waterfowl. The observer had no prior experience with Brant and made the identification after perusing a field guide later in the day. | Accepted | |||
