Join us on September 19 and 20 in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania — all Audubon members are welcome!
Come together with other Auduboners and experts for learning, sharing and taking action to ensure that Pennsylvania’s forests remain healthy habitats for wildlife, headwater sources of clean streams, and enjoyable places for recreation. There will be field trips on Friday and a kickoff speaker/event on Friday night. Saturday plenary and breakout sessions will include:
- Birds that depend on Pennsylvania forests
- How to create bird-friendly yards and communities
- Latest research on the value of Pennsylvania’s urban forests for bird migration and rural forests as bird nurseries
- Impacts on our forests from fracking operations
- What individuals and groups are doing locally and statewide to make a difference
- Audubon chapter sharing on many topics and issues
- Plus exhibits, social opportunities, and fun!
