In 2005, Vic Fazio began his volunteer work as eBird reviewer for Ohio.It was not the first transformative project he had spearheaded for Ohio birdingbut the hours he contributed towards Ohio’s eBird experience from then untilnow has been herculean. In June of 2016 Vic started the wheels of transitionturning towards multiple Ohio reviewers and in May 2017 he announced theaddition of three new reviewers and added several more in the following months. On November 1, 2017 oversight of eBird reviewof the whole state was transferred from Vic to a group consisting of CraigCaldwell, Stefan Gleissberg, Kent Miller, & Brian Wulker.Since then (with Vic’s input) this group has been actively assigningclusters of Ohio’s counties to mostly local reviewers and we are very pleasedto now announce the new lineup of reviewers processing Ohio’s eBird data.Alphabetically by county the current list is:Adams BrianWulker

Wyandot Ben Warner & SteveLandesWe trust this group will build upon the stellar standardsthat Vic has set for Ohio eBird review. You can send questions about specificreports directly to the appropriate reviewer. You can also direct generalquestions to the Ohio eBird Q & A Facebook group. We are exploring severalnew options for keeping this list and dialogue online at several places but fornow Ohio eBird Q & A is the best place to find this list and ask questions.Craig, Stefan, Kent, & Brian have joined Vic in having access to reviewingany record in the state so questions can be directed our way as well. We arepleased that Vic is planning to continue to lead the way in keeping Ohio’sfilters (which determine which sightings get flagged) exceptionally precise andup to date. Thanks for helping Ohio’s birding and eBirding continue to grow andexcel.Craig Caldwell, Stefan Gleissberg, Kent Miller, & Brian Wulker.
