Rare bird reports are a valuable resource for documenting the natural history of birds. The most interesting details and lore about rare birds are often embedded inside rare bird reports that are rarely if ever seen, or even made available to the public which is absolutely archaic. Therefore, Anous and cooperators have made their reports available for download. Reports not ‘confirmed’ by the provincial records committee are marked with an asterix. Enjoy.
