Community Programs
Community Outreach
Sacramento Audubon volunteers participate in many of the region’s bird-related festivals and events. Our volunteers talk one-on-one with attendees about the Society’s important work and provide beginning birding information. Join Sacramento Audubon’s Community Outreach Team at these fun upcoming events!
Community Presentations
Given by expert birders and naturalists, our community presentations are available to a broad and diverse audience from garden clubs to Boy Scout troops. An Audubon volunteer will work with your group to provide the right program for you.
Here are some examples of the programs we offer:
Common Birds of Sacramento - includes calls and interesting facts about size, shape, and habits of birds
Why Do Birds Do That - a look at common bird behaviors
Cool Things That Birds Do - unusual things that birds do
Bird Courtship Behaviors - how different species attract mates
Bird Habitats of Sacramento County - how different habitats influence the birds seen there
There is no cost for these programs. Our hope is that participants will be inspired to join additional Sacramento Audubon activities and develop a deeper interest in the environment. However, donations are always welcome.
If you are interested in scheduling a 30-60 minute program for your group, please contact the Education Committee.
Nature in Your Classroom
Sacramento Audubon Society is currently sponsoring Effie Yeaw Nature Center’s “Nature in Your Classroom” programs for Title 1 elementary schools in the area. The programs are presented by Effie Yeaw Nature Center Naturalists either in person or via Zoom. There are a variety of programs created for different elementary school age groups.
If you are an educator interested in bringing nature to your classroom, contact Sacramento Audubon’s Education Committee to see if your school qualifies.
