The Condor

The Condor is the official publication of the Cooper Ornithological Society, a non-profit  organization of over 2,000 professional and amateur ornithologists and  one of the largest ornithological societies in the world. A quarterly international journal that publishes original research from all fields of avian biology, The Condor has been a highly respected forum in ornithology for more than 100 years. The journal is one of the top ranked ornithology publications. Types of paper published include feature articles (longer manuscripts) Short Communications (generally shorter papers or papers that deal with one primary finding), Commentaries (brief papers that comment on articles published previously in The Condor), and Book Reviews.

The Condor will also be making articles available on an ahead-of-print basis through UC Press' online platform JSTOR. These articles will be available to both members and subscribing institutions.
