Our Conservation Efforts

The Audubon Outdoor Club is actively involved in promoting conservation and maintenance of critical birding habitat in the Coastal Bend Area.

At the core of our conservation efforts lie our sanctuaries and stewardship efforts. We are committed to effecting positive change at the local level through our affiliation with community partners and our wonderful volunteers.

Pack it in, pack it out!

Allied Organizations

In pursuing the interests of local and migratory wildlife along the Coastal Bend, the Audubon Outdoor Club contributes both volunteer services and monetary donations to allied organizations operating in Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend area that share our goals.

These organizations either emphasize the intrinsic value of natural habitat and the moral imperative for humans to nurture all organisms in our environment, or they take agency on behalf of natural resources that cannot lobby for themselves.
