Welcome to the Quad City Audubon Society. A chapter of the National Audubon Society, we are an association of local volunteers whose primary concerns are birds and the habitats that sustain them.


Mission Statement

The Quad City Audubon Society (QCAS)
is dedicated to the enjoyment of birds, a better
understanding of the natural world,
stewardship of natural areas and habitats, fellowship,
improvement of community awareness of environmental issues,
and education of youth for the benefit of future generations

for about one hour, allowing excellant views by all
who were fortunate to see it.
