Observation details

This bird had been discovered independently by Gail Luckner and C. Dean Fisher on the afternoon of May 9, 1992, but they were not initially certain of the ID. Later they both decided that it was this species and both parties called me on May 10 to tell me what they had identified. I called others and Chuck Sexton and I headed to Uvalde early the morning of the 11th where we met up with Mark Lockwood and others. The TBRC data on this first (and still only) U.S. and Texas record is: 9-12 May 1992 Uvalde, UVA (TBRC 1992-70; TPRF 1099; ph published on cover of TOS Newsletter 40(2), Spring 1992) (AB 46:448, 501) The image below is posted on iNaturalist.org.
