Folks, and eBird review staff,
No one has been reviewing, vetting, and accepting any eBird rarities seen off NC this spring, at least in May. This "reviewing hole" means that there are no records on the species maps for Bermuda Petrel, Trindade Petrel, and other rarities on Brian Patteson's many May pelagic trips off Hatteras Inlet. All rarities were photographed, so there is no issue with identification.
Can the review staff please correct this? Some of these rarities were photographed in early and mid-May. I caught this as I was working on the Spring Briefs for The Chat.
