| 09-23-2007. Sturts -- Accept Photograph is diagnositc |
04-06-2008. Sturts -- Accept I'm still convinced by the picture that this is a White-winged Dove. |
| 09-29-2007. Dave Trochlell -- Accept Despite the lack of any description, the image submitted was clearly a WWDO. |
04-14-2008. Dave Trochlell -- Accept Again, I'm accepting this record on the strength of the image, which although not ideal, shows what I believe to be a White-winged Dove. |
| 10/1/2007. Cliff Weisse -- Reject, specific identification not established With only the photo on which to base this ID I'm not comfortable accepting this record. The bird in the photo seems too contrasty for White-winged dove. The wing coverts appear almost black and there is significant contrast between neck and head as well as between breast and belly. I'd like to see what the rest of the committee thinks of this photo before accepting this record. |
4/12/08. Cliff Weisse -- Accept After doing a little more research I'm convinced that the photo depicts a White-winged Dove. |
| 010-06-2007. chuck trost -- Accept While there was almost no description, the picture looks good to me. |
04-11-2008. chuck trost -- Accept The photo looks diagnostic to me. |
| 14 October 2007. Hardy -- Accept Photo adequate: shows diagnostic white wing area and face pattern. |
20 April 2008. Hardy -- Accept Same comments as first round. |
| 11-04-2007. Carlisle -- Accept Good picture |
04-17-2008. Carlisle -- Accept the 'contrastiness' that Cliff mentioned does not worry me and seems to fit the more contrasty-looking juvenile plumage depicted in Sibley (appropriate for June) |
| 1/3/08. Charles Swift -- Accept Photo shows distinctive white coverts on folded wing. |
4/29/2008. Charles Swift -- Accept See round #1 comments. Also I know the observer, a professional field biologist, and he is careful and competent. (And I still fell the photo is pretty conclusive.) |
