About the Journal

Aims & Scope

Nuestras Aves is one of the three journals published by Aves Argentinas since 1962 and focuses on ornithological topics. It is aimed at the scientific community, birdwatchers, and naturalists. Published annually since 2008 in digital format, Nuestras Aves welcomes contributions from researchers, naturalists, birdwatchers, conservation practitioners, and citizen science contributors. Its content covers natural history, behavioral descriptions, novel records on breeding and feeding, and new or little-known geographic distributions relevant to specific regions or countries.

Types of Submissions

The journal accepts two types of submissions:

  • Novel Records: Reports of rare species, unusual behaviors, breeding records, or significant distributional observations.
  • Articles: More detailed contributions, including methodological studies, regional surveys, bibliographic reviews, compilations of records, and analyses relevant to ornithology and bird conservation.
