Partners
Birds of the World is published by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology in Ithaca, New York. The content is made possible by a global collective of ornithology experts that have joined forces to create the world’s leading dynamic and participatory platform for curating and publishing avian life histories and data resources. On this page, we introduce you to the people and partners involved in this project. Expect this partner network to grow, as we are actively engaged in expanding this ornithology collective. Many of our partnership arrangements result in free access to certain constituents and sometimes entire countries.
Scientific Authors: We deeply appreciate the expertise of more than 2,100 scientific authors who have contributed to one or more species accounts. Their biographies are listed on each account. We encourage you to get to know them and to follow their work.
