So many birders eagerly anticipate Ron Pittaway's winter finch forecast
every fall but unfortunately for all of us, Ron has decided to retire from
the finch forecast. Below, Ron introduces the new finch forecaster.

Good birding!
Willie

Dear Birders,

Please welcome Tyler Hoar of Oshawa, Ontario as the new winter finch
forecaster. Tyler was one of my main sources of tree seed crop information
and insights on finches over the years. He authored the account of the
Evening Grosbeak in the last Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas. We look forward
with great anticipation to Tyler's first Winter Finch Forecast in September.
