A total of 117 species were recorded for the month. The Kelp Gull was not reported to the CH
although reports continued into February in other formats. Glaucous Gull was reported from West
Beach and Oldsquaw was reported again from Tyrell Park. Documentation for the Oldsquaw record
was submitted previously.
All March reports are due April 3rd. Readers are reminded that all decisions regarding checklist
status are made by the checklist committee. Publication of a rarity does not imply acceptance of the
record by the editors or the committee. The CH format remains the same this month. The listing uses
the following format: bird name, early late dates, reports/total and summary by county or detailed
listing. The format ofthe county summary is as follows: county designation - number of reports/number
of birds. The detailed listing format is as follows: county-(number of birds) day, observer code. Very
rare birds are underlined. Birds with no previous record on date or vagrant status appear in bold. Birds
new to the checklist are capitalized and underlined. Please remember to submit notes on birds very
rare or vagrant status. And with all the reminders completed - on to the birds.
