Does this mean the CFO checklist is auto-sync'ed to the eBird (and hence Clements) taxonomy? Just curious - I note that the 2016 Clements updates are now released as of today, and I assume the CFO checklist will then be revised shortly again.
For example, the CFO checklist at the moment (6pm, Aug 10) has an incorrect family sequence - [...] Partridges Grebes Pigeons and Doves Cuckoos Goatsuckers Swifts Hummingbirds Rails Cranes ... Gulls Loons Storks ... Herons Ibises New World Vultures Osprey Hawks, Eagles, etc [...] but in fact the order should be [...] Partridges Loons Grebes Storks ... Herons Ibises New World Vultures Osprey Hawks, Eagles, etc. ... Rails Cranes Pigeons and Doves Cuckoos Owls Goatsuckers Swifts Hummingbirds [...] and so forth. I've left a lot out obviously, but only to illustrate the big differences better. This should explain some of the confusion mentioned earlier in this thread about the difficulty of finding some of the family groups in the new checklist! Things have changed, yes, but not *that* much. :) Eric ------- Eric DeFonso Westminster, CO -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
