JOIN 375,000 AUDUBON SUPPORTERS WHO RECEIVE THE AUDUBON MAGAZINE [Donate]

Audubon magazine has fostered people’s love of birds for decades—and as one of our most dedicated supporters, we know you'll love it, too. When you become an annual supporter, you’ll get our exclusive, award-winning magazine as our thanks for your commitment to powering our mission to build a brighter future for birds and our planet. Each quarterly edition delivers essential news, advice, and reporting on birds and bird conservation. Join 375,000 Audubon donors and claim your free Audubon magazine with an annual gift right away!

If we fail to act, many beloved birds—including the Rufous Hummingbird—may not survive a future impacted by climate change. They could lose over 70% of their breeding range after already experiencing long-term population losses and accelerated declines within the past decade. With so much at stake, we must flock together to bring birds back before it’s too late. That’s why, with your support, we’re working to halt, and ultimately reverse, the decline of birds across the Americas. And through Audubon magazine, you’ll see the story unfold: the challenges birds face, and the hope your generosity helps create.

So please, protect birds with a dependable gift right away while you can still receive Audubon magazine as our thanks. Your gift will automatically renew each year to provide the consistent support our teams need.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society

Amid scorching heat waves, dead seabirds are washing ashore in California

Don’t miss this opportunity to get your first annual gift matched for birds in need

Common Murre.

Birds can’t escape the extreme heat without you

Seabirds are washing ashore in California, starved to death as record-setting ocean temperatures decimate their food supply. Scientists fear that a historic El Niño could soon worsen the die-off. Catastrophes like this don't have to happen—but they're becoming all too common as the climate crisis worsens.

Birds can’t ask for your help. So, we’re asking for them: Will you start an annual donation now to protect the birds we love? For a limited time, your first gift could be matched, up to $10,000 thanks to a group of generous donors—so please, don’t wait another minute.

If climate change continues unchecked, more extreme weather events, including heat waves, lie ahead—worsening the impacts on birds and their habitats. Yet we are not without hope. Thanks to generous support from people like you, we’re building a more sustainable future for birds like the Common Murre. With more than 120 years of protecting birds under our wing, our proven combination of research, advocacy, education, and hands-on conservation is a powerful force in preventing future extinctions, helping declining populations recover, and safeguarding the places birds need to survive.

But we depend on your support to make it all possible—and birds can’t wait. So please, start your annual donation right away while your first gift can still go twice as far. Your annual gift will renew automatically each year, providing uninterrupted resources our teams can depend on in their work year after year.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
