What connects you to Audubon Society of Omaha?

   Our Audubon community is a melting pot of bird watchers, habitat gardeners, native prairie and grassland advocates, arborists, insect and pollinator enthusiasts, and everything in between.

   In 1972, Audubon Society of Omaha became the first National Audubon Society chapter in Nebraska. Over the years, our group has welcomed thousands of members who share a common love and respect for all things nature.

   Is nature your hobby, a passion, or even your career? From students to retirees, everyone has a place to learn and get involved with our mission: to actively promote environmental awareness to our community through education, conservation, and enjoyment of our natural heritage, especially birds.

   We offer monthly educational programs and field trips, publish our bimonthly Meadowlark newsletter, and serve as stewards of two local native prairie properties. We hold semiannual birdseed sales to help fund our Student Art Contest and awards ceremony.  All of our programs and events are free and open to the public.

   If you joined National Audubon and live in our area, you are automatically a member of our local chapter, Audubon Society of Omaha.

           Whatever connects you to ASO, we welcome you, and hope you keep coming back to our community of environmentalists, conservationists, birders, and nature lovers of all kinds.
