Abstract
Black-chinned Sparrows (Spizella atrogularis) are rarely found in winter much beyond their typical non-breeding range. Therefore, the Black-chinned Sparrow that spent the fall/winter of 2015-16 in Yolo County, California was remarkable. To put this record into perspective, I reviewed all available confirmed reports of extralimital winter Black-chinned Sparrows available from American Birds/North American Birds, Christmas Bird Counts, eBird, and various state rare bird committee reports. Based on these records, the Yolo wintering bird was the first found in winter in the Central Valley and the second winter record for Northern California. It was also the second most northerly winter record in California by 3.8° latitude (over 440 km) and further north than any winter record outside of California by over 3° latitude (over 330 km).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
