About the club
Our history
The Club was founded in 1925 in memory of Professor Alfred Newton F.R.S. (1829 –1907). Formed as a frustrated response to the blocking of a move to form different sections within the Cambridge Natural History Society, it was originally called the Cambridge Ornithological Club and membership was restricted to only 20 persons!

Publications
We produce the annual Cambridgeshire Bird Report, and distribute monthly an e-Bulletin to members which contains up to date bird records and articles. We produced the Cambridgeshire Bird Atlas 2007-2011, part of the BTO Bird Atlas project. Previous annual reports and bulletins are regularly placed on the website and made available to all.
