Long-billed Curlew--original notes and sketch
Observation details
This was one of the more unusual and memorable sightings I've ever had; we were birding a field of tall grass in Estes Park while snow flurries were falling when this curlew came flying over us. Knowing how unusual this was, I took down notes immediately (attached) along with a sketch of what we saw. We have no doubt about the ID. Notes sent to the CBC compiler (Jim Peterson) and to the American Birds editors who acknowledged it (Vol. 45, page 291).
