Welcome to the Charleston, SC Audubon
We are the Charleston Natural History Society – and Charleston‘s
Audubon society – a South Carolina chapter of the National
Audubon Society since 1970. Founded as the Charleston Natural History
Society in 1905, we serve Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties.
We are a nonprofit environmental organization that actively promotes awareness,
appreciation and conservation of the natural environment through educational
programs, field trips, conservation projects, sponsored research and social
activities.
Local membership is available by joining the National Audubon Society.
Please visit our membership page online,
or download a recent copy of our local newsletter, The Lesser Squawk,
which always includes a membership application that you can cut-out and
mail.
Don‘t miss our calendar page for information
about our lecture series, fieldtrips and other Lowcountry events.
Bird-a-Thon & Spring Count 2010
The Charleston Audubon Society Spring Bird Count was held on Sunday, May 2. Our chapter has conducted this count for many years, and the data we collect is extremely valuable in detecting long-term trends in bird populations.

Chapter Logo
Members may have noticed the use of a new chapter logo on the mailer side of The Lesser Squawk:
Designed for flexibility we hope that the new graphic can serve to identify our group for a long time to come. Different species of birds will be used in various contexts, and we hope to make the logo available to members – on t-shirts, decals, and possibly some other merchandise.
