Every community has the potential to be a place where birds flourish

This work depends on the sustained, year-round commitment of bird lovers like you.

Northern Yellow Warbler. KAREN, every community has the potential to be a place where birds can flourish. But over the last century, development has replaced native landscapes with sterile lawns and non-native plants. Glass buildings, pesticides, and habitat loss put birds at risk every day. And too many of the spaces birds once relied on for food, shelter, and safe passage simply aren't there anymore. With more than 120 years of expertise under our wing, we know that habitat restoration, native plant education, and community engagement can help transform our communities into places where birds not only survive but thrive. This work depends on the sustained, year-round commitment of bird lovers like you. So please, start your annual gift to provide the reliable support that makes it all possible. As our thanks, we'll send you a "Plants for Birds" yard sign so you can champion native plants and bird-friendly spaces right in your own neighborhood—and inspire others to take action for birds. There’s hope in our collective action, and we have practical, effective solutions to address the urgent and interconnected problems of biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, and climate change. When you start an annual gift today, you’ll join a community of our most dedicated bird lovers across the country who help deliver hands-on conservation efforts that are locally focused and guided by region- and bird-specific expertise. Grounded in our shared love for birds, we’re restoring and improving the resilience of important landscapes, successfully advocating for climate legislation at the state and federal levels, and transforming communities into places where birds flourish. This work—and all the critical work we do on behalf of birds—can only happen with the support of bird lovers like you. Please join us with an annual gift now while you can still receive a “Plants for Birds” yard sign as our thanks. As an annual donor, you’ll also receive our award-winning, awe-inspiring Audubon Magazine each quarter!

KAREN, we need your help to create a safer future for birds

We can and must do more while there’s still time.

Start your annual gift right away to protect birds and receive a "Plants for Birds" yard sign as a token of our appreciation. Western Bluebird. Where birds thrive, people prosper. But over the past century, urbanization has taken, fragmented, and transformed ecologically productive land with sterile lawns and exotic ornamental plants. We’ve introduced walls of glass, toxic pesticides, and domestic predators. The human-dominated landscape no longer supports functioning ecosystems or provides healthy places for birds.  Through habitat restoration, native plant education, and community engagement, we can create a safer future for birds and people alike. Our best efforts depend on people like you, KAREN. Please start an annual gift to help protect birds and the habitats they need. Your yearly support will fund vital science, education, advocacy, and conservation. As our thanks, we'll send you a beautiful sign about the importance of native plants. Guided by science and informed by 120 years of experience, we identify which birds and habitats are most in need of protection and which will most benefit from our efforts—findings that drive effective action across our unrivaled network. With the support of bird lovers like you, we’re restoring and improving the resilience of important landscapes, successfully advocating for climate legislation at the state and federal level, transforming communities into places where birds flourish, and securing the space and clean air and water that birds and people need to live and thrive. And it’s working: Our comprehensive program of research, advocacy, education, and hands-on conservation is a powerful force in preventing future extinctions and helping declining populations recover. It comes down to this: Where we work—and when you help—birds are better off. But with so much at stake, we can and must do more while there’s still time.
