This list corresponds closely with the Ohio Bird Record Committee's documentation review list. However, this list has two additional species; Clay-colored Sparrow and Eurasian Wigeon. With these additions, the list represents those species which have NOT been recorded annually in the most recent 10 year period (1990-1999). A PDF version of the complete Ohio list will be made available shortly, highlighting these species, thereby identifying the "CORE"* 289 species which have been recorded annually during that period. This listed was created by myself (V.Fazio) and vetted by Robert Harlan.
Rules: Use of the toll-free number should be restricted to reporting species on the following list or otherwise first-state records should there be a reasonable expectation the bird may remain in the area for subsequent observation by fellow birders. This toll-free service does not substitute existing phone-trees or online communication services. It is only intended as another tool by which Ohio's birding community communicates breaking news of rare birds, thereby facilitating the thorough documentation of a record by as many observers as possible.
