Audubon Society of Portland promotes the understanding, enjoyment, and protection of native birds, other wildlife and their habitats. We focus on our local community and the Pacific Northwest.

Come visit us and enjoy miles of forested trails in our wildlife sanctuary on Cornell Road, open from dawn to dusk everyday. Visit our interpretive center wher you'll find exihibits, a natural history library, and places to watch birds up close.

Learn about birds, wildlife, and conservation issues through classes, lectures, and trips. Volunteer to help others learn too!

Explore our nature store, where you'll find books, binoculars, bird feeders, gifts, and friendly people to answer your nature questions.

Meet our educational birds of prey at the wildlife care center, where trained volunteers rehabilitate injured and orphaned wildlife and teach people how to co-exist with our wild neighbors.

The Wildlife Care Center cares for over 3,500 orphaned and injured wild animals each year.

We are one of National Audubon Society's most active local chapters, with more than 7,500 members and 1,000 volunteers, and a dedicated, knowledgeable staff.

Each year, we field over 25,000 wildlife and nature-related phone calls, helping you learn more about living well with your "wild neighbors".

We offer people of all ages and abilities a wide variety of hands-on natural history programs. Each year, we provide enriching educational trips, camps, and tours to over 18,000 schoolchildren and more than 2,000 adults.

Use your member discount to choose from affordable local, national, and international opportunities to explore birds, wildlife and the natural world.

Conservation Advocacy in Action

Our staff and volunteers work diligently to make sure that local and statewide efforts to protect habitats, species and our quality of life get the attention and action they deserve. We make it easy for you to get involved too, through the Audubon Conservation Team, our grassroots activist network.

Portland Audubon has worked to secure a region-wide system of Greenspaces with trails to access them - places where you can enjoy nature and wildlife and where habitats are protected. Places like Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge along the Willamette River, Beggar's Tick Marsh in outer southeast Portland, and Tualatin Hills Nature Park in Beaverton.

Community Involvement

With over 60 different regular volunteer opportunities available, as well as many special project and event opportunities, we've got a way for you to get involved and make a difference you can feel good about.
