The California Bird Records Committee (CBRC) received 221 records in 1990. A similar number (213) of records was received in 1989, and this will probably be close to the annual average. The CBRC has reviewed about 2860 of the 3110 “published records” (as defined by Roberson, “News from the California Bird Records Committee,” W. Birds 20:269–271, 1989) through May 1990, which represents a review percentage of close to 92%.
