At its annual meeting in February 2021, IORC made the following changes to the Review List.
- Remove White-winged Dove from the Review List.
- Remove Neotropic Cormorant from the Review List.
Both of these species now occur regularly in Illinois, and IORC no longer requests documentation of sightings. Because separation of Neotropic Cormorant from Double-crested Cormorant can be difficult, depending on observation conditions, observers are encouraged to take detailed field notes and to include those in submissions to seasonal report editors or in eBird checklist entries.
