Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania connects the people of southwestern Pennsylvania to birds and nature through our programs, projects, and places.
WELCOME TO AUDUBON SOCIETY OF WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA
Connecting People to Birds and Nature Since 1916
There’s always something happening at Audubon
We offer programs and events for people of all ages to connect with nature in a way that will motivate them to become active and engaged in our natural world
Summer Camps
Our Outdoor Discovery Camps balance exploration, nature play, and learning with games, crafts, science activities—and time to be a kid. We have camp options for ages 5 – 18.
Camps take place at Beechwood Farms Nature Reserve, Succop Nature Park, and Buffalo Creek Nature Park.
Birdie Big Year: Elevating Women Birders
Wednesday, May 7 | 6:30 pm
Tiffany Kersten didn’t set out to do a Big Year, but after a series of unanticipated events, she found herself amidst one. As a sexual assault survivor, she spent 2021 traveling to all corners of the US, tallying birds and gifting personal safety alarms to women she met along the way.
