Ohio birders:

It has been a long, dark, snowy winter, but we have technically come to
the end of the winter season and the beginning of the spring migration
season.

28 February marks the end of winter in terms of the way we keep track of
bird records; winter is considered to run from December 01 to 28 February.

Please consider submitting your observations of Ohio birds from the
winter season to The Ohio Cardinal.  The bulk of the issues are made up
of field observations from birders, and we are eager to find out about
and report on what you've been seeing.

Please submit your reports, by e-mail or by postal mail, to the
following addresses:
     Andy Jones
     Department of Ornithology
     Cleveland Museum of Natural History
     1 Wade Oval Drive - University Circle
     Cleveland, OH 44106

     e-mail: [log in to unmask]

A convenient form for submitting seasonal observations, and additional
information is available here:

http://www.ohiobirds.org/publications/cardinal/aboutcardinal.php

Reports should be submitted by March 25th.

Photographs and articles are also greatly appreciated - contact me for
information on submission guidelines.

THANK YOU!!!

Andy

PS: The summer 2008 issue is at the printer at the moment, so it should
be mailed to you shortly.  Thanks for your patience, everyone.
