The Ornithological Council provides extensive resources for ornithologists, all available through the drop down menu above. Our work focuses on permits and animal welfare requirements (see sidebar at right). We encourage ornithologists at every stage of their careers to consult these resources regularly and to contact the Ornithological Council with questions and concerns. Some of these requirements are extremely complex and we are always available to help you to navigate around these barriers.

You’ll find additional resources, current news items, a database of ornithological journals, and an active job board at the Ornithology Exchange, an online community managed by the Ornithological Council.
