Description fits that of the Yellow-billed Loon. Two experienced birders identified the bird.

The description is adequate and includes relevant field marks. Also I saw this individual on 12/15/99 and have no doubt about the ID.

The description offered here is both good and convincing. I believe that this bird stayed below the A.F.R. dam for quite awhile and was seen by many observers, including me.

The written report supports the identification. I know the bird was also seen by many other observers. The report says there are photographs. It would have been nice to see them.

Description sufficient.

Adequate mention of fieldmarks distinguishing this from a COLO - tan head and bill shape/color.
