Birders,
This is the last call for Oregon birders to submit their Listing Results as of Dec 31, 2025. The window for submissions will close Sunday night, March 1, 2026.
Because I have not sent out as many reminders as previous years, the number of submissions is down. Now is the time to get your numbers together and submit them.
Numbers submitted must comply with the ABA listing rules.
If you have reached a particular milestone, please put that in the comments at the end.
Once I have entered all the numbers, I will send out a proof sheet to each person who submitted numbers, asking you if I entered your numbers correctly. PLEASE REVIEW these proof sheets and let me know if you see mistakes. I want the final produce to be as accurate as possible.

Today (2/18/26) I had the year's first flock of Band-tailed Pigeons fly over my house at the southwest corner of Ashland. Also, Hutton's Vireos are starting to "sing" in Siskiyou Mountain Park.

Date: 2/13/26 9:11 am From: Pepper Trail <pepper.trail...> Subject: [RV Birds] Turkey Vultures are back
When I arrived here 30 years ago, I was told that Turkey Vultures typically return to the Rogue Valley around St. Patrick's Day. But in one of the many changes wrought by climate change, in recent years Turkey Vultures seem to return to the Rogue Valley right around Valentine's Day. And right on that new schedule, I saw two flying north near Talent yesterday.

Hey folks the February RVAS Chat was sent out to day and we missed a photo labelling error on our end. Janet's photo of the loon is indeed a *Pacific Loon* as submitted not a Common Loon as we labelled it. Not sure how I missed it but I did . Apologies to Janet . We will publish a correction in print in the next Chat as well.
good birding, frank
