We connect people to nature, like our parent organization, the National Audubon Society. We have guided field trips and nature walks. At Lenoir Nature Preserve, we have a Butterfly and Hummingbird Garden; we sponsor talks and programs there as well as a Hawk Watch in the fall and a Feeder Watch from November to April.
We love to share our enthusiasm for birds and nature. Our activities are open to all and free of charge. Join the Nation Audubon Society.
