ber in the following Spring issue. Each

listing will include the species, date,

location, vote total, and the volume/

page reference of the Note of Interest

or article in The Loon (if any). Also,

for unacceptable records, a summary

of the reasons why the record was not

accepted will be included. Note that

an unusual sighting may be accepted

for publication in The Loon without a

vote by M.O.R.C. when there is a

specimen or obviously identifiable

photograph of the bird. Also note that

some records accepted by M.O .R.C.

may not be published in The Loon

if the voting is completed after the

appropriate seasonal report is printed,

or if the documentation is considered

too brief or not significant enough for

a Note of Interest. However, all rec-

ords voted on by M.O.R.C. , whether

acceptable or unacceptable, whether

published or unpublished, are placed

in the M.O.U. permanent file of Min-

nesota birds at U.M.D. in Duluth. (For

information about or access to these

files, contact Janet Green or Kim

Eckert.)
