Observation details
Originally called this a Common, but on Sep. 21 John Sullivan contacted me and told me this bird looked more like a Arctic, after consulting with some others, this bird appears Arctic based on stubby head and bill. Also dark trailing on very edge of wings which on common would be more bold. Also more gray chest and stomach area, with long tail. There was a huge movement of Commons earlier that mourning which may of drew in this bird later.
