Years ago we had a barn owl at our house. I didn't keep records back then, so I don't even know the exact year, let alone the month. I currently have the date as January 1st, 1900, bypassing the ebird review process and making the sighting viewable only to me. Since (as far as I know) it is the first county record, should I report it publicly even though I would have to estimate year, month, and date?
