Our subscription fees are modest in comparison to many other ornithological societies and we offer reduced rates for students (all geographic areas) and for researchers and conservationists in less developed countries. We are a non-profit society so our members’ subscriptions are essential for us to achieve our goals. Membership fees are used primarily to support the publication of the quarterly Journal of Raptor Research.
