Our Qualifications

The Avicultural Society of America is a non-profit membership organization open to anyone with a love of birds and a desire to learn more. Membership must be in individual names. A company or aviary name may be included but not as the primary name. We do not accept membership from any individual who has been convicted of any crime concerning the importation, interstate shipment, illegal possession or inhumane treatment of any avian species. The names of membership applicants are published in the Bulletin before final approval so they can be reviewed by the membership.
