welcome

Welcome to the Sarasota Audubon Society. As a local chapter of the National Audubon Society, we're dedicated to the protection, conservation and enjoyment of birds, wildlife and the environment here in sunny Sarasota.

There are many ways you can get involved:

• Attend one of our monthly meetings, where you can network with other nature lovers and enjoy an educational program about an exciting environmental or wildlife related topic.

• Join us for a birding trip. (No experience required.)

• Participate in clean-up activities of our adopted road, Palmer Boulevard.

• Become a member of Sarasota Audubon! Our members receive an informative newsletter, the Brown Pelican, and enjoy supporting one of the oldest conservation and education oriented environmental nonprofits in our area.

Conservation Alert: A petition opposing offshore drilling will be circulated at the November 9, 2009 meeting.  Please take the time to become informed on this issue - start at protectfloridasbeaches.org - and do your own searching and reading from there.  If you can't attend the meeting, please circulate your own copy (here) and mail to Sarasota Audubon Society, PO Box 52132, Sarasota, FL 34232-0337.
