- We generally host a number of bird walks and field trips throughout our season for our members and the general public. Most events do not require a pre-registration and are free.
- 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.
