Details
Because of the intergradation between Icterus galbula and Icterus bullockii, female Bullock's need to be completely described - especially the head, back, and underparts - in order to be accepted. The description for this record only described the underparts.

Record evaluated when both galbula and bullockii were considered subspecies of Northern Oriole (Icterus galbula).
