| WELCOME |
Napa-Solano Audubon Society is Chapter
C-28
of the National Audubon Society. Our area
covers
all of Napa and Solano Counties (California)
which
are located north and northeast of San
Francisco
Bay.
The two county area is known for its
wide
diversity of natural habitat including tidal
salt
and fresh water marshes, vernal pools,
grasslands
dotted with valley oaks, chaparral foothills
with
live oak, chamise, and manzanita, riparian
corridors
with willows and Fremont cottonwoods, mixed
broad-leafed
and conifer forests, and redwoods. In
addition
over 50,000 acres are cultivated
vineyards.
The Vision of Napa-Solano Audubon Society is
to
be the best birding and conservation
organization that focuses on Napa and Solano
counties.
We actively support local birding, local and
area
conservation education and advocacy, and
local
birding science including the recently
completed
Napa County Breeding Bird Atlas and the
current ongoing Solano
County Breeding Bird Atlas project.
|
| NEST BOX PROJECT |
The Napa-Solano Audubon Society has launched an exciting new project to distribute over 200 nesting boxes on public and private land throughout Solano and Napa counties. If you are interested in adopting a bird box or helping with this fun project, click here for more details!

| VOLUNTEER |
In addition to the Bird Box project, there are many other opportunities for those who would like to assist us as volunteers! Our club is an active group and there are a variety of possibilities for you to help out.
You can volunteer as a field naturalist for our
Solano
County Breeding Bird Atlas. We will train
you
and support you as you cover you own 5000
meter
by 5000 meter block of Solano County. You
will
follow an established user-friendly
scientific
protocol while identifying and entering data
on
breeding birds.
Volunteers are needed to assist in
public
outreach, to
assist
at public events such as bird walks, the
Flyway
Festival, and other events around the Bay
area.
The chapter needs volunteers to write articles for the Song Sparrow newsletter, or perhaps you would like to help out with our local educational efforts (see sidebar at left).
If
you
have a skill and a desire to assist in this
worthwhile
project we have a volunteer job for you!
Contact
the Project Director or Chair persons listed
under
the Contact link.
