[TN-Bird] TOS member named editor-in-chief THE OHIO CARDINAL

Dr. Andy Jones, a former resident of Kingsport and a graduate of
the University of Tennessee - Knoxville, has been named 
Editor-in-Chief of The Ohio Cardinal, the state journal of the Ohio 
Ornithological Society.
Andy has been associated with the Bristol Bird Club for 13 years.  
He was a youthful birder in high school at Kingsport and became 
involved with BBC as a freshman at the University of Tennessee.  
He was a recent speaker at the BBC's annual banquet and 
recognized with a Stephen M. Russell Graduate Lectureship Award 
from BBC in Sept 2005.  The award honors outstanding doctorate 
degree candidates  in ornithology. He is the third candidate 
honored by the program.

He is the Curator of Birds at The Cleveland Museum of Natural 
History in Cleveland, Ohio and the head of the museum's Department
 of Ornithology. 

He earned his B.S. at the University of Tennessee - Knoxville where he 
was active in the Knoxville Chapter of the Tennessee Ornithological 
Society and served as a chapter officer. After finishing his Ph.D. at the 
famous Bell Museum of Natural History, Department of Ecology, Evolution, 
and Behavior of the University of Minnesota, he raised eyebrows among 
ornithologists in this hemisphere. His molecular research publication of 
tern phylogeny, has gained widespread recognition. His proposal for a 
new genus of terns has been accepted by the South American Checklist 
Committee (SACC).

While at the University of Tennessee he managed the Tennessee
Ornithological Society's first website.  at Steele Creek Park 
Nature Center in Bristol, TN.

The Ohio Cardinal is the journal of record for observers of Ohio's bird 
life. For over twenty-five years this quarterly has presented extensive 
organized reports of bird observations season by season. These records 
now number over fifty thousand and form a substantial source of data for 
the study of the abundance and distribution  of the state avifauna.

We extend our congratulations to another great young biologist and
ornithologist from the Volunteer State.

Let's go birding.....
