Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO)

is dedicated to the study of birdlife in Ontario

OFO was formed in 1982 to unify the ever-growing numbers of field

ornithologists (birders/birdwatchers) across the province, and to provide

a forum for the exchange of ideas and information among its members.

The Ontario Field Ornithologists officially oversees the activities of

the Ontario Bird Records Committee (OBRC); publishes

a newsletter

(OFO News

) and this journal (

Ontario Birds

); operates a bird sightings

listserv (Ontbirds), coordinated by Mark Cranford; hosts field trips

throughout Ontario; and holds an Annual Convention and Banquet in

the autumn. Current information on all OFO activities is on the OFO

website (email: admin@ofo.ca), coordinated by Ivor Williams.

Comments or questions can be directed to OFO by e-mail (ofo@ofo.ca).

All persons interested in bird study, regardless of their level of expert-

ise, are invited to become members of the Ontario Field Ornithologists.

Membership rates can be found on the OFO website. All members

receive

Ontario Birds

and

OFO News
