- Beginning birders are particularly welcome at our events! The advanced birders who lead these events enjoy helping others learn about the habitats, songs, and lives of birds and how we can protect their habitats.
- Check out the 3,500 sq. ft. St. Augustine Audubon Native Plant Garden that we installed and maintain next to the St. Augustine Visitor Information Center.

About Will
Will Misner was first drawn to photography as a means of conveying his deep knowledge of birds and the context of their landscapes and habitats. Over time, he has translated these intersections into travel photography, architectural photography, and street photography, engaging his viewers in a creative journey, whether it is with wildlife, humans, structures, or streetscapes.Having lived in California, New York, and Florida, Will has also traveled extensively nationwide and to more than 20 countries around the world. He brings a global perspective and an open mind to his award-winning work, and his photography is as much about storytelling and building connections between his audience and his subjects as it is about the artistic composition, itself.
Will is a speaker and workshop leader at Florida’s Photo Fest, a contributing member of the Future Frame Society, a Bird Walk Leader for St. Johns Regional Audubon , the regional representative for the Florida Young Birders Club, and a Hunt's Photo & Video Affiliate. He is based in Jacksonville, Florida.
