New Mexico Ornithological Society
Submitting a report to the Records Committee

It is emphasized that a request for documentation is not an affront, but is an effort to substantiate a record by obtaining concrete evidence which may be permanently preserved for all to evaluate.

Please be as complete as possible, as this may be the most complete report available to users of the record. Its future acceptability may depend on how well it is detailed here. This report and any photographic or other documentation will be placed in ornithological archives and otherwise appropriately used.

Submit to:
