St Louis Audubon Society

(1) our in-class programming has been on hold for two years, but virtual programming continues, with programs on birds offered through local partners (library, audobon center). (2) a bird-of-the-week feature goes out via email and facebook every week. (3) conservation and related educational grants are offered annually if the restricted fund has sufficient income. (4) we work to protect birds and their habitat by advocating for birds to government officials and agencies, identifying and protecting important bird areas (iba), funding species-specific projects, and supporting citizen science efforts. (5) we lead birding field trips and beginner bird walks all year in parks, refuges, and other public spaces. (6) we coordinate volunteer community workdays to restore local wildlife habitat.

St Louis audubons bring conservation home program provides on site habitat restoration advice and certification for urban landowners in the St Louis region. The program addresses native and invasive plants, water and conservation, and wildlife stewardship practices for the benefit of birds, other wildlife and the community. The program also includes unique events and outreach programming to provide a variety of opportunities for the public to learn about the principles and practices of sustainable native plant habitat gardening.
