All, Eric is correct that there is no documentation of the April 1996 Garganeys at Sombrero Marsh in the CBRC database, so that either nothing was submitted (very likely), or the submission was misplaced (rather unlikely). This was the era when submissions were pieces of paper, and not the easy electronic submissions that we have presently.
I'm told the pair were there for a week, and were seen by many observers: Alex Brown, Dave Leatherman, Maggie Boswell, John Vanderpoel, Bill Kaempfer, etc. I didn't see them, so must have been out of state. Old submissions of really rare species in Colorado to the CBRC are welcome. Cheers, Peter Gent. Boulder, CO.
