Tyler Audubon Society is devoted to the
enjoyment and safekeeping of the natural world. Through the participation in
birding, education and conservation ventures, we encourage East Texans to join
us in our mission.
The primary objective of the Tyler
Audubon Society is to create an awareness of the natural world's beauty and
problems by promoting an appreciation of birds, other wildlife and habitat,
to promote an awareness of the environmental problems of the past, present and
future, and to find solutions for these problems.

Please
join us as we seek the birds of East Texas. Learn how to spot and
identify some of the 250 species of birds that occur regularly in Smith
County. Enjoy the migration of birds through our area. All you
need to bring is a pair of binoculars, water, and a snack. If you
have a bird field guide, you should bring that too (and it never hurts to
have a pair of rubber boots in the trunk). Tyler Audubon includes
birders at all levels of experience, and beginners and nonmembers are
welcome. Questions? Contact Peter Barnes
