The journal NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS will soon be digital (starting with the issue that covers Fall Migration 2012).
In the meantime, the most recent issue is currently online and is available FREE to all readers. Every issue covers all regions of North America, but the current issue online contains several sections that will be of particular interest to Ontario birders: 1) Ontario Spring Season Report for 2012 -- compiled and written by Alan Wormington, it provides a comprehensive overview of sightings from last spring; plus (9) colour photos of rarities are included. 2) The "Changing Seasons" written by Editor Ned Brinkley -- an analysis of spring events across North America; fabulous reading, and some fabulous photos too, including (3) from Ontario. 3) A major paper on Kirtland's Warbler -- covers the spring and fall migrations of Kirtland's Warbler in North America, and ALL Ontario reports of the species are listed.
