Welcome!

Since 1951, the OOS has served as a place where recreational birders and academics interact to increase appreciation and conservation of wild birds in the Sooner State. The OOS sponsors field trips, semiannual meetings with invited guest speakers, a quarterly newsletter (The Scissortail), and a quarterly peer-reviewed state journal (The Bulletin of the Oklahoma Ornithological Society).
