Audubon Louisiana Announces New Advisory Board Members

— Audubon Louisiana is pleased to announce the appointment of Van R. Mayhall, Jr. and Larry Avery to its advisory board.

From the Desk of the Executive Director

First and foremost, thank you for being an Audubon supporter. Whether with your time, your treasure, or both, you help Audubon as we strive to be the most effective conservation network in America. Our Arkansas team has been hard at work over the summer. We have harvested and planted acres of native grasses and flowers in an effort to draw more and more Northern Bobwhite back to the Grand Prairie. At the Little Rock Audubon center we hosted dozens of school kids every day over the summer, and now we get to see them after school each day. We also been hosting chimney swifts this fall as they begin their migration. And we have continued the fight to bring more solar energy to Arkansas, reducing air pollution that puts all birds at risk.

This fall promises even more activity at the LR Audubon Center and around the state. We hope you will take time to stop by and say hello at the Center, explore our Wildlife Observation Trail, and enjoy the Arkansas fall weather (whenever it decides to arrive). Please continue to check our website and stay up-to-date with all our activities as an email subscriber. We want to let you know what we’re up to and how we can work together to make Arkansas a place where birds and people can thrive together.

If you would like to make a financial gift to Audubon Arkansas or to volunteer your time, please contact us through the website or by calling (501) 244-2229. Our team would love to hear from you.

Sincerely, 

Brett Kincaid
