[Birdtalk] "A B C's of Jaeger ID" and "How to Document Rare Birds"

[Lu Giddings]

I stumbled across an excellent article last night on the website for the
Louisiana Ornithological Society entitled "How to Document Rare Birds."
I pointed this link out to Kris Purdy who, digging a bit deeper than I,
as she usually does, found a useful article on Jaeger identification at
the same website. In light of the recent record numbers of jaegers  in
Utah (200% more jaegers than usual) and other rarities, I thought that
some of you might find one or both of these interesting. I imagine the
state Records Comittee would be particularly grateful if we all would
read the documentation article.
