IOU Records Committee



More on what the Records Committee does...

The Iowa Records Committee, a standing committee of the Iowa Ornithologists' Union, is charged with evaluating and voting on records of rare birds recorded in the state.  Records which receive 7 positive votes on the initial review or 6 votes on subsequent reviews are accepted.  The committee maintains the current Official Checklist of Iowa Birds.  Members review all records through the end of the term expiration year shown in parentheses below.  If you are interested in the procedures used by the Records Committee when evaluating records, please see the Records Committee Procedures Manual.
