  The
Kingbird, a quarterly journal, is
devoted exclusively to New York State ornithology. Field reports
of rarities, often with photographs, are a regular feature,
along with general articles on birds and bird behavior, and
good birding areas. A bibliography of New York State ornithology
and publication of the actions of NYSARC (New York State Avian
Records Committee) are regular features.
No longer are the birds shown in The
Kingbird relegated to shades of gray! The recent addition
of color photographs is a long-awaited improvement that has been
greeted with cheers of joy from all sides.
The most important function of The Kingbird is
the seasonal recording by the birders of migration data, and breeding
and distributional changes. This data is compiled by a team of
ten Regional Editors from information
supplied to them by individual birders and presented quarterly
according to season. All are encouraged to submit their field observations.
Manuscripts for publication, as well as short notes
of even just one or two paragraphs, should be submitted to
