Who We Are
Des
Moines Audubon Society was organized in 1923 by a group of folks interested in the
birds of the area. Although it is not a chapter of National Audubon, there
is an affiliation and the Des Moines group actively particpates in Iowa Audubon.
In
addition to monthly meetings with a variety of fascinating programs and monthly
field trips to find birds in central Iowa, we are one of the sponsors of the
Jester Park Pelican Festival each fall.
