Audubon Society of Rhode Island |
Welcome
The Audubon Society of Rhode Island, the state's first environmental organization, invites you to discover the wonders of nature. Annually, more than 17,000 members and supporters along with tens of thousands visitors enjoy our fifteen refuges statewide, award-winning Environmental Education Center, and enthralling special events and fascinating programs.
Our Audubon was founded in 1897 to halt the slaughter of birds used in the day's fashions. Today, our mission promotes environmental education, conservation and advocacy.
The Audubon connects you with nature all year through recreational and educational activities, emphasizing birds while encompassing all native wildlife and habitats.
The natural world is both sanctuary and classroom. Audubon encourages you to enjoy nature, learn from it, and protect it. Join us and experience the discoveries that nature offers you.

 We invite you to become partners with Audubon in the daily
feeding and care of our ambassador animals.
Audubon is fortunate to
have so many birds and animals as educational ambassadors to our programs.
However, their care takes staff time and money. Our
Adopt-an-Animal is a fun way to learn about these creatures, get involved in their
daily lives and gain a better understanding of the care for
injured animals - it is a daily, ongoing process.
Choose one animal and receive a beautiful 5x7
photograph of your animal, a biography explaining how your animal lives
- including species data, a certificate suitable for framing, and more.
