Events Update:

In accordance with recommendations of state and local health officials, the Saint Paul Audubon Society is cancelling all activities until further notice. This includes all scheduled meetings, hikes, field trips, and special events, including Warbler Weekend. Updates will be posted on the website.

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.
