Audubon Magazine

INBOX

Extinction Crisis • Local newspapers are rapidly shuttering across the United States, leaving troubling gaps for environmental coverage.

Friends in High Places • Each summer, conservationists protect seabirds that nest on rooftops instead of beaches. What happens when both become inhospitable?

Words to Live By • A team of specialists is racing to recover bird names embedded with traditional knowledge in the Anishinaabemowin language.

Test Pattern • A surprisingly simple fix could keep more birds safe as wind energy expands.

Measure for Measure • Advocates hope new permit rules will yield a windfall for eagle conservation.

2024 AUDUBON PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS

TIME FLIES • The magazine’s look and even its name have changed over time, but through Audubon’s 125 years of publication some things have remained constant: our delight with birds and our focus on helping readers enjoy and protect them.

CHAIN OF EVENTS • Conservation has always been at the core of our mission. These five themes have defined our coverage for decades—and will remain prominent in our pages for years to come.

GET IN GEAR • We’ve featured myriad products to help generations of avian aficionados better know and support birds.

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT • Early issues brimmed with ideas for the bird enthusiast. Some aged better than others.

THROUGH THE BIRD LENS • Our reporting tracked world events, emerging innovations, and novel threats. Here’s our idiosyncratic review of history unfolding on our pages.

The Buck Stops Here • Surging deer populations are a crisis for eastern forests and the birds that inhabit them. Solving the problem may demand unprecedented national action.

THE MIGRANT TRAP • A beautiful, politically complicated island in the Mediterranean continues to play an outsize role in Europe’s bird-poaching problem. A dedicated few are trying to turn things around.

FIELD GUIDE • Capture birds’ beauty in paint or pixels—or admire them at their most awkward.

Help Bird Murals Spread

Who Wore It Worst? • Most birds molt slowly and subtly, making the process hard to detect. But for some species, including many feeder visitors, the transition is awkward and obvious.

A Bridge to Bird Photography • A field biologist explains how a superzoom camera can enhance your birding experience without weighing you down.

THE AVIARY • Where birds inspire art, awe, and action

Extending Our Reach. Maximizing Our Impact. • This map shows where Audubon works, as well as the areas where Flight Plan will potentially take us.

Shaping a Thriving Future

We Will Bend the Bird Curve

A Meaningful Difference

MILESTONE: HABITAT CONSERVATION • We will conserve 300 million acres of quality, connected, and climate-resilient bird habitat across the hemisphere.

MILESTONE: CLIMATE ACTION • We will support the deployment of 100 gigawatts of new renewable energy and help store 30 billion tons of carbon in conserved forests, wetlands, and grasslands.

MILESTONE: POLICY LEADERSHIP • We will advocate for our Healthy Birds, Healthy Planet policy agenda, as well as other...
