Audubon Delta - Mississippi

The Audubon Coastal Bird Survey is a volunteer-based community science program designed to provide scientists with valuable data for addressing conservation needs of coastal waterbirds that breed, winter and migrate along the Gulf Coast. The program, originally established through the Pascagoula River Audubon Center in response to the BP oil spill, is already providing valuable population and habitat-use data for a variety of coastal waterbirds, many of which are experiencing population declines.

The below surveys are conducted by Audubon Mississippi staff members.  All volunteers are welcome to join on these surveys, but we especially recommend them for new volunteers looking to get a bit more experience identifying coastal birds.

Stewardship Steering Committee meetings occur approximately once per month. All volunteers, with or without experience, are welcome to attend these meetings. At these sessions, we plan for and brainstorm activities to promote awareness, provide outreach, and recruit new volunteers to help in our breeding bird stewardship efforts. Everyone is invited to attend!
