02-12: 2018 Splits and Lumps with Nick Block
Another year, another trip around the world of bird taxonomy courtesy of the American Ornithological Society's classification committee. That group of bird scientists informs the field guides and lists we birders use every day and they are once again making those decisions presently. As we have before, we lean again on Dr. Nick Block, professor of Biology at Stonehill College in Easton, Massachusetts and Secretary of the ABA's Recording Standards and Ethics Committee, He joins host Nate Swick to help break down some of 2018's taxonomy proposals up for consideration by the AOS.
