The records are from many sources, including Rare Bird Reports, Audubon Christmas Bird Counts, Birds of Idaho by Burleigh, North American Birds, Idaho Bird Distribution by Stephens and Sturts, US Fish and Wildlife Service Breeding Bird Surveys, sightings reported in Idaho Audubon chapter newsletters, personal sightings, and rarer sightings reported to eBird and area listserves. The entire database is searchable here.
