Hello Tweeters and Charles,

How come that most of the birders what saw this Arctic Loon automatic saying
they had the Arctic Loon? How did all of you observe the bird? It is a good
question that Charles Swift asks.So did you all see the wrong loon,and say
OK i saw it so i can add it to my list? This been done before with the
Arctic Loon was sighted at Priest Rapids in winter 2000.
