From July 24 to August 11, become a member of Indiana Audubon and enter to win one of two birding giveaway baskets!
We rely on the support of bird lovers to protect Indiana’s birds. With nearly 3 billion birds lost across North America since the 1970s, your membership helps us drive vital conservation, education, and research. Join a passionate community dedicated to preserving the birds and habitats you care about!
Help Us Convert eBirders and Bird Watchers into Members
Over 25,000 eBirders have contributed valuable data to Indiana’s bird records, and we’re aiming to turn just 25 of them into members to amplify our impact. At the same time, we’re reaching out to casual bird watchers who may not use eBird but share our passion for birds. Our goal is to engage a total of 50 bird enthusiasts—both dedicated eBirders and casual watchers—as active supporters of IAS. Your membership fuels our conservation, education, and research efforts. Join us and be part of a community committed to preserving the birds you love!
