Hi everyone:

Just a clarification ... the latest Voice of the Naturalist 
transcript indicated that White-winged Crossbills are "reviewable." 
They are not reviewable in Maryland; however, they are reviewable in DC.

Background: In 1996, White-wingeds had not been reported in many 
years (since 1980), so the committee added them to the MD review 
list. Then, during the winter of 1997-98, we had an invasion (!) and 
in 1998 we took them back off the review list.

Hope this helps ...

Phil
