We work to bend the bird curve.

Audubon works across New York to protect birds and the places they need. Our long-term vision is to "bend the bird curve," in other words, to halt and ultimately reverse the alarming decline of birds.

Through a collaborative, bipartisan approach across habitats, borders, and the political spectrum, Audubon drives meaningful and lasting conservation outcomes.
