Nos Oiseaux - Societe Romande pour l`Etude et Ia Protection des Oiseauxhttp://www.nosoiseaux.ch/50 rue AchilleMerguin, CH-2900 Porrentuy. +41 6666 5629 Nos Oiseaux est une société, mais c`est aussi une revue qui paraît régulièrement depuis juillet 1913 et dont la collection est une véritable mémoire de l`ornithologie romande. Si le premier rédacteur en a assumé la parution durant 26 ans, son successeur, Paul Géroudet, a porté le flambeau durant 55 ans, donnant à notre revue l`audience internationale qu`on lui connaît. Référence incontournable de l`ornithologie européenne, auteur de la fameuse série La vie des oiseaux aux Editions Delachaux & Niestlé, Paul Géroudet, Dr honoris causa des Universités de Neuchâtel et de Genève, a donné, grâce à ses connaissances encyclopédiques et à sa plume élégante, un style inimitable à notre revue. Après un relais de trois ans par Claude Guex, c`est le jeune biologiste valaisan Bertrand Posse qui a pris la rédaction en mains depuis janvier 1998.

The first breeding records in Switzerland are also examined by the SRC...
