Hi All,

Please check the date on the ABA blog post and think hard about its 
implications. I am current with the latest literature and findings in 
systematics. None of the changes cited in the article are in the offing 
(Baltimore & Bullock's Orioles are not even each other's closest 
relatives). If you wish find and read the online PDF files the AOU 
Check-list Committee has posted on the current issues they are looking 
into. This is not serious "news". Remember what day this be...

Good birding (and keeping listing the B&B orioles),

Walter Ellison

Based on that blog entry (I wasn't able to access the full report, for some reason), it looks like I have "lost" one species on my life list, and my Maryland list also decreases by one.  I'm disappointed that I can't access the full report as I am dying to know which parrots are now countable.
