Virus Update:

In accordance with recommendations of state and local health officials, the Saint Paul Audubon Society is cancelling all activities until further notice. These activities include the member meeting on April 9, Warbler Weekend on May 8-10, and various field trips.

Of course we encourage everyone to get outdoors whenever possible while maintaining safe social distance until the virus crisis has passed. Please stay safe and we look forward to resuming our regular social activities as soon as is feasible. Updates will be posted on the website as we have more information.

We’re building a community that values and protects birds and the natural environment.

Defining the SPAS Mission

The St. Paul Audubon Society Board is working on a new vision, mission, goals, and strategic plan for the Society. We would like input from the membership to help frame the scope of SPAS’s activities, and to determine focus areas for our efforts and expenditures in the next 3-5 years. Please answer the following three questions and submit your answer to General@SaintPaulAudubon.org.

Briefly, what should SPAS’s top two priorities be for the next 3 years?
What one action would you most like SPAS to take?

Thank you for helping to shape SPAS’s future!

COVID-19 and birding

So I know this is somewhat off-topic (and you are probably all sick of reading about COVID-19). But in my non-birding day job I’m a physician, bracing for the ramping up of COVID cases and the horrifying specter of lives lost to this disease.

It’s become abundantly clear that this is a disease that needs to be beaten on the public health front, not at the bedside
