This report covers the period from August through November 2005 in
Alabama and the Florida Panhandle (west of the Apalachicola River). The
appearance of observations in this article does not suggest verification or
acceptance of records for very rare species; these must be considered by the
appropriate state records committees. All submissions of birds that are rare,
either in general or for a particular season or region, must be accompanied by
adequate details of the observation. The extent of this documentation depends
on the rarity of the species and the difficulty of identification. For guidance,
observers are encouraged to consult the Alabama Ornithological Society
checklist. Reports should note conditions of observation and the diagnostic
characters observed. Your help in this matter is appreciated.
