Our Project

The LBJ  is a biannual publication dedicated to  birds and creative writing. Its title is drawn from the acronym for “little brown job,” used by birders to describe those difficult-to-identify species, such as many sparrows. 

While there are popular magazines (Audubon), scientific journals (The Auk), and other newsletters about birds, The LBJ  is a uniquely literary venue, publishing creative nonfiction, fiction, poetry, narrative scholarship, and literary journalism of the feathered variety. Additionally, the journal showcases visual art in a full-color insert. 

Small, plaintive, and aspiring, The LBJ  comes to you in 5x7 format that is just the right size to carry into the field alongside your binoculars.
