Now that you've finished your tax return, how about writing something for The Bluebird?

May 1 is the deadline for submission of materials to be considered for inclusion in the June 2024 issue of The Bluebird, the journal of the Missouri Birding Society. The most recent issue (and all the past ones) are available here<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmobirds.org%2FBluebird%2F&data=05%7C02%<7Cmobirds-l...>%7C4be284f23e544d2c370308dc5d5e3522%7Ce3fefdbef7e9401ba51a355e01b05a89%7C0%7C0%7C638487906687082732%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C60000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=AY%2FBjOuU29uOos4N9wkv%2FG5zE1zMMOImfIbCn9n%2FtJg%3D&reserved=0>.

We solicit submissions of anything related to birding in Missouri -- articles about birding trips, unusual sightings or experiences while birding, ideas for birding techniques, identification tips, memoirs, fiction or poetry about birds or birding, photos of Missouri birds, original artwork, book reviews, you name it.

We also publish peer-reviewed scientific articles reporting original research on birds; please note that the review process takes time, so such material is often published in a subsequent issue. If you want a paper to be peer reviewed, please make that clear when submitting it.

Please email all submissions to me, Allen Gathman, <agathman...><mailto:<agathman...>. Microsoft Word format is preferred for text. If you have images to include with text, please send them separately, preferably as .jpg files -- not embedded in the Word document. For all photos of birds, please include the identification of the bird species, the location where the photo was taken including Missouri county, date taken, and photographer's name.

Your submissions make the Bluebird possible; I encourage everyone to send something. While it may not be possible to include all submitted material in the current issue, some items can be used in a later issue.

-Thanks,

Allen Gathman
Editor, The Bluebird
Pocahontas, MO
