Last news update: 26 May 2021
Even though social distancing guidelines due to the coronavirus pandemic have recently been relaxed somewhat, Augusta Bird Club members are still urged to exercise caution during field trips, etc.
For the time being, recordings of the Augusta Bird Club's recent online meetings are available to the general public via Zoom; see the link information below. We hope to resume in-person regular monthly meetings in the fall, but that depends on how well the covid-19 pandemic has been contained.
