Birder's Guide is the new, quarterly, full-color ABA magazine whose production is already well under way. Instead of 96 pages of black-and-white content appearing in your mailbox each year (Winging It), you'll now receive about 192 pages of a full-color, glossy magazine—on top of the 6 issues of Birding you already get! And that doesn't include the expanded online content we have up our sleeves.

In late spring ABA members will receive A Birder's Guide to Travel, which is, well, precisely that! Within its covers you will find practical, useful tips from experienced travelers on what technologies can make your trip most productive, on how and what to pack, and, most importantly, on where and when to go, and why. Making a reappearance will be the ABA's much-valued Pelagic Directory, which has been on hiatus the past two years. You will receive two more issues of Birder's Guide later in the year: A Birder's Guide to Listing and Taxonomy and A Birder's Guide to Gear.

We at the ABA are thrilled to be able to offer you more and higher-quality content going forward. We're not downsizing; we're upsizing. And we hope you like the change!
