Thanks Donna Didn't realize the on line checklist had rolling updates prior to publication of the supplement. I see Northern Harrier has been split from Hen and Northern Shrike from Great Grey.

I think we're all waiting to see if that is the final word or if more will be coming. Donna Schulman --------------------------------------- Donna L.

A bit of background: Considered a subspecies of the Herring Gull by the AOU until 1973. Thayer's Gull, received full species status based largely on the research of A.H. Macpherson and Neil Smith in the 1960's. Smith's work which suggested Thayer's and Kumlien's Gulls mated as separate species on Baffin Island was viewed with much skepticism and this decision by the AOU appears to debunk his claim. Ron Pittaway, a respected authority on this subject has published an excellent account of the history of this taxonomical debate and is worth reading for those interested. http://www.ofo.ca/site/page/view/articles.thayer<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ofo.ca%2Fsite%2Fpage%2Fview%2Farticles.thayer&data=01%7C01%7Csweet%40amnh.org%7C1c3bb5b25ce645f0ae8b08d4c07a49c3%7Cbe0003e8c6b9496883aeb34586974b76%7C0&sdata=6%2FvcUHSI0lMDRQFQzzbHH2eHTXKlfktpFMmyXPZIKCk%3D&reserved=0> -------- "I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence." ~ Frederick Douglass 風 Swift as the wind 林 Quiet as the forest 火 Conquer like the fire 山 Steady as the mountain Sun Tzu<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Frefspace.com%2Fquotes%2FSun_Tzu&data=01%7C01%7Csweet%40amnh.org%7C1c3bb5b25ce645f0ae8b08d4c07a49c3%7Cbe0003e8c6b9496883aeb34586974b76%7C0&sdata=pzOKCFgQSP0nFaIaSYwtVd8iMzLXmbuVWfoTUI9ok2I%3D&reserved=0> The Art of War<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Frefspace.com%2Fquotes%2FThe_Art_of_War&data=01%7C01%7Csweet%40amnh.org%7C1c3bb5b25ce645f0ae8b08d4c07a49c3%7Cbe0003e8c6b9496883aeb34586974b76%7C0&sdata=nyswfUUaERKk5Fch3J3jZaPB5Hsm1aOxHKw6p7TH1RI%3D&reserved=0> (__/) (= '.'=) (") _ (") Sent from somewhere in the field using my mobile device!
