CBRC Report

[Peter Gent]

All,

The issue of Colorado Birds just made available online contains the 81st Report of the Colorado Bird Records Committee.  The report documents 3 additions to the state list: Yellow Grosbeak, Cassia Crossbill and Rufous-backed Robin.  This means that the Colorado state list now stands at 518 species.  The report also documents the state's 3rd record of Thick-billed Kingbird, and the state's 3rd and 4th records of both Mexican Whip-poor-will and Magnificent Frigatebird.  It also contains the 5th record of Ruff, the 7th and 8th records of Harris's Hawk and the 8th record of Smith's Longspur.
