- Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S322250504
- Comments: "Started out at the SW corner of the Long Meadow, and worked its way NE over Quaker Ridge, with DG tracking in the scope the whole way. Large Progne martin with strongly forked tail. Pale below, and seemed particularly clean on the lower belly/vent, but no obvious indication of anything other than the most expected taxon. SS may have some distant photos."
