Wildlife Notice – The mid-Atlantic, East Coast, and Great Lakes regions of the US are currently experiencing a songbird mortality event. Reports of sick and dying birds with vision problems, eye swelling (often with a crusty discharge), and neurological symptoms have been reported in multiple states including both Pennsylvania and New York. Experts recommend taking down all bird feeders and bird baths until the source of the disease is identified. ACNC will continue selling birdseed at the Nature Center, but will provide customers with information and recommendations related
to the event.
The connection begins with you.
Audubon Community Nature Center builds and nurtures connections between people and nature by providing positive outdoor experiences, opportunities to learn about and understand the natural world, and knowledge to act in environmentally responsible ways.
