Central Valley Bird Club Bulletin and Central Valley Birds

The quarterly Central Valley Birds (formerly Central Valley Bird Club Bulletin) is the only journal dedicated to publishing original information on bird status, distribution, ecology, and conservation of the birds of the Central Valley. CV Birds (CVBC Bulletin) welcomes the contribution of articles, notes, and news of interest to birders, scientists, and conservationists.

Recent articles have addressed:

  • Species status and conservation (Bank Swallows, Purple Martins, Loggerhead Shrikes),
  • Species identification (Trumpeter Swans),
  • Population trends from analyses of Christmas Bird Counts,
  • Recent species expansions (Eurasian Collared Dove),
  • Rare occurrences (Snowy Owl, Blue Jay),
  • Population responses to habitat management programs,
  • Site guides to key birding locations, and
  • Natural history observations (Burrowing Owl, Northern Rough-winged Swallow).

All Bulletin and CV Birds articles as pdf files are available on the CVBC BULLETIN / CENTRAL VALLEY BIRDS DOWNLOAD PAGE.

Each issue also contains a summary of highlights of seasonal observations and notes regarding field trips and other club news.
The Bulletin’s Editorial Board encourages members to submit articles for publication. Board members are committed to assisting authors in putting their observations in a form suitable for the Bulletin and CV Birds. Articles may be written in a variety of forms. Refer to previous issues for examples of formats we use. Please feel free to contact the editors or editorial board chair for further information.
