Emu–Austral Ornithology in the era of Twitter: 120 years of regional ornithology and counting

This year, Emu–Austral Ornithology turns 120. As one of the oldest of the world’s ornithological journals, it has flown on through several major storms. Like the big (flightless!) bird itself (e.g. Ryeland et al. Citation2021), the journal has had to adapt to ever more rapid change. It continues to reflect BirdLife Australia’s policy to promote the celebration, understanding and conservation of austral birds (Buchanan and Herman Citation2021), and across the years has tracked significant conceptual changes in international ornithological science (Joseph et al. Citation2021).
