The Great Egret Society was named after the magnificent bird whose conservation was a driving force in Audubon’s creation more than one hundred years ago. Members of this inner circle take their place in a strong partnership with Audubon to create a safer future for the birds that bring us so much hope and joy.

At a time when threats to our birds—from climate change to development—have left many species in extreme danger, the leadership and support of our Great Egret Society members are truly invaluable.
