Cliff Weisse -- Accept

Although there is no description in the report the photos are good enough to confirm the ID. Also I saw this individual.

Carlisle -- Accept

photos document bill & head shape, back pattern, etc.

Dave Trochlell -- Accept

The first two documentation photos really clinch the identification for Yellow-billed Loon, but I was troubled by the third one. I debated whether or not that one was an imm. Common Loon. A written description of the bird would've been helpful.

Written description very weak; no real identification details. Photo #1 is very good.

Accept on basis of excellent photos (some additional written description would have been useful and instructive).
