Ornithological Society of the Middle East

The Ornithological Society of the Middle East (OSME) is a British-based ornithological and birdwatching club for people interested in the birds of the Middle East, the Caucasus and Central Asia. It was established in April 1978 as a successor organisation to the Ornithological Society of Turkey, and in 2001 was expanded to cover central Asia and the Caucasus.
