[cobirds] Re: CFO Update on the Colorado Bird Records Committee

Being the CBRC chairperson or a member of the CBRC is never a easy thing to do.  Thanks to outgoing CBRC Mark Peterson for all his excellent work with the Colorado Birds Records Committee for several years!  Good luck to the new chairperson Rachel Hopper.  Hopefully I can see and photograph some CBRC review species to document this spring and submit them to the CBRC.  Have a good spring everyone!

Part of the mission of the Colorado Field Ornithologists (CFO) is to maintain the authoritative list of the Birds of Colorado. This is accomplished through the careful consideration of a group of dedicated volunteer expert birders who pore over documentation of rare bird sightings and vote on their authenticity. This volunteer group is the Colorado Bird Records Committee, a committee of the CFO Board of Directors. This committee publishes its reports periodically in the pages of Colorado Birds, CFO's quarterly journal.

At the last CFO board meeting, the CBRC Chair Mark Peterson announced that he would be stepping down as Chair. He nominated CBRC committee member Rachel Hopper as his replacement. The Board voted unanimously to approve Rachel's nomination.

I'd like to welcome Rachel as the new CBRC chair. Rachel has a long and accomplished history of serving on the CFO Board, so really we are welcoming her back.  Mark also has a long history serving on the CFO board. I would like to sincerely thank him for his many years of service in many different capacities. Fortunately he has agreed to continue to assist the Board and CBRC chair for a smooth transition.

CFO President
