The monographic guides project is born with the purpose of bringing the reader closer to the world of the avifauna that surrounds us, going beyond the information provided by their plumages, as Plumarium has been accustomed to, to delve into other morphological, sociological, and environmental aspects of the bird. We will do this through detailed, serious, and committed work. Thanks to the work of an exemplary team (Moona, Sylvatica, and editors), the website has become a successful space on the Internet, receiving visits not only from birdwatching enthusiasts but also becoming a reference for professionals in the sector such as biologists or veterinarians. This motivated us to make the decision to expand the information and knowledge that Plumarium.es can provide about each specimen or species. Thus, the idea of publishing the MONOGRAPHIC GUIDES is born.

With this project, we aim to create a collection of guides for the most representative birds or groups of birds of the Iberian Peninsula and Europe. Each issue of this collection will focus on a specific species, aiming to cover all the most representative species of European avifauna. In this way, we present all the key plumages for identification: sexual dimorphism and transitional ages, from juvenile to adult. Talks, experiences, and curiosities will be included, and all the traces we have will be shown to offer the most comprehensive and detailed information possible. Some of the aspects that will be included are traces such as the skull, footprints, claws, eggs, nests, and pellets.
