What we’re about
We are a coalition of individuals and organizations promoting conservation and community-based actions to create a healthy, more sustainable environment for birds and people in the Lehigh Valley. We work in cooperation with the Bird Town initiative of Pennsylvania Audubon Council, https://birdtownpa.org/.
For more events with a focus on birds, please visit the Meetup page of Lehigh Valley Audubon Society.
**Want to get involved? We need help with planning and holding Bird Town events! You don't need a high level of knowledge about birds, plants, or nature — just an interest in helping and learning. Please email tinkuvolk@me.com to learn more.

Join the Lehigh Valley Audubon Society for our annual Christmas Bird Count for Kids (CBC4Kids), a fun introduction to birding and community science that teaches kids how to use binoculars, identify common birds, and collect scientific data. The CBC4Kids is based on the National Audubon Society’s Christmas Bird Count, a 125-year-old citizen science event that has become a cherished holiday tradition for birders nationwide. Following a short, fun, interactive session learning about birds, citizen science, and how to use binoculars, CBC4Kids participants will form teams and (under the guidance of LVAS members) conduct a bird count in a nearby park. After an hour of birding, everyone will reconvene to tally up the data and share their discoveries.
All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
$3.00 per child for Lehigh Valley Audubon Society members and $5 per child for non-members. Subsidy available for students who qualify for free or reduced price lunches.
