Welcome! The Grand Traverse Audubon Club members enjoy birding together, meeting for nature-oriented programs or field trips, and participating in service projects related to the environment. We are concerned about the preservation of habitat for wildlife, and natural areas for the enjoyment of all residents. We are designated a charitable non-profit 501(c)(3) and are a chapter of the Michigan Audubon Society .
Our regular programs are usually the second Thursday of the month at the Boardman River Nature Center on Cass Road at 7:00 pm which are open to members and non-members. Everyone is welcome to attend!

Our Next Program:
September 10 (Thursday) TBD (Stay tuned – your board of directors is busily working on a fall line-up)
Our Next Field Trips
Stay Tuned! We have some field trips in the works. June field trips were tremendously successful! We typically take July off and will most likely have a couple coming up in August.
Our Next Sunday Bird Walk
June Sunday Bird Walks
Join us at various locations around the area for a birding experience designed for those just getting started or wanting to polish their skills. We’ll focus on identification skills, not just a big list. Outing time for the next Bird Walks will be announced via Bird Alert. Contact Coordinators listed below.
(Stay tuned to the Sunday Bird Walks of 2026; more to be announced in the next coming months.)
June 21 – 7:30 am – S. Popp Rd & E. Bodus Rd
We’ll meet up in Cedar at Cedar Hardware Store (8925 S Kasson Street- park in back) then carpool to S. Popp Road to check out the infamous pond and grasslands. We’ll backtrack to E. Bodus Road in search of Bobolinks!
