Audubon Florida

Make Florida more pink by supporting Audubon Florida this Give Miami Day. 
 
The new flamingos – blown in by Hurricane Idalia - appear to be satisfied with the Sunshine State’s offerings: clean, abundant wetland habitats that contain plenty of food for foraging. It’s an important moment: Wetland restoration is working for our wading birds. The reason we can host frolicking flamingo friends is because groups like Audubon have worked tirelessly over more than 100 years to restore and protect the Everglades, coastal habitats, and wetlands.  

As leaders in applied bird conservation science, Audubon Florida engages in research and analysis to support Everglades Restoration projects. Audubon's decades-long scientific research improves our knowledge of the status and ecology of our favorite pink bird, Roseate Spoonbills, an indicator species used to assess and refine Everglades restoration. Audubon's Everglades policy team based in Miami leverages this scientific data to ensure funding for restoration projects.

Your support will help Audubon Florida:
•Conduct scientific research linking changes in climate, hydrology, aquatic vegetation, prey base fishes, and Roseate Spoonbills.
•Participate closely with restoration decision makers and provide scientific guidance to ensure project outcomes meet ecological goals.
•Develop and implement local, regional, and national advocacy; and cultivating an informed and engaged public constituency in Miami Dade County.

The work of Everglades restoration is decades in the making, and there are decades more of work to be done. We will remain vigilant and dedicated to conservation projects and policies that protect these special places and species, from healthy wetlands that provide water to millions of Miamians to the beautiful birds that call the Everglades home.
