The DUTCH SEABIRD GROUP (Nederlandse ZeevogelGroep - NZG) is a section of the Netherlands Ornithological Society (Nederlandse Ornithologische Unie - NOU). A number of NZG-working groups is involved in different areas of seabird study such as the Beached Bird Survey group (NSO), the Coastal Seawatching group (CvZ), the Offshore and the Breeding Bird group.
The Dutch Seabird Group aims to be a bonding mechanism between amateur and professional seabird researchers nationally and internationally and strives to disseminate seabird information to non-governmental groups and policy makers that are dealing with the marine environment. To achieve such aims, the Dutch Seabird Group publishes the journal SULA and contributes to the organisation of workshops and symposia.

Membership of the NZG is for a full calendar year and includes its journal SULA (in Dutch with English summaries and captions; 3 issues per year). Membership is automatically unless cancelled in a timely fashion. The annual fee for members outside the Netherlands is € 18.50. An example copy of SULA may be requested from the secretary.
Application
Membership application is by email or letter to the secretary. Please detail your name, mailing address including postal code, place and country and state the year by which membership should start. Following your application we will send our invoice and any issues of SULA already published in your membership period. Please note that with NZG you cannot list a separate invoice address because our prolongation invoices are always mailed out as enclosure with SULA.
Cancellation
Membership is for a year and is automatically prolonged, with the invoice for prolongation enclosed in the last issue of SULA of the ongoing volume. Cancellation of membership, i.e. refusal of the proposed prolongation, is possible by email or letter to the secretary until 6 weeks after receiving the invoice. No partial remittance of the annual membership fee is possible.
Change of address
Notify the secretary in good time of any change in address. Please only do so by email or letter, and not by a note on written bank-transfer papers as those usually stay with the bank and are not seen by us.
Payments
Payment options are detailed on our invoices. We strongly prefer payments by electronic bank transfer to our international bank account nr (IBAN) NL59INGB0006255749 of the Nederlandse Zeevogelgroep, Oudeschild (Texel); the SWIFT/BIC code of our bank is INGBNL2A. NZG cannot accept cheques or similar because of excessive bank charges.
Secretariat address
NZG secretary, J.A. van Franeker, De Houtmanstraat 46, 1792 BC Oudeschild (Texel), The Netherlands.
