Indiana Audubon Society History

The Indiana Audubon Society was officially organized in 1898. In 1921, IAS began publishing the Indiana Audubon Bulletin, the publication that we know today as the Indiana Audubon Quarterly. In 1998, Charles Keller published the History of the Indiana Audubon Society: 1898 - 1998. The book is full of old pictures, biographies of the original members and fascinating stories and can be downloaded:   Adobe pdf file (3 MB).

Spring 1921. Published by the Indiana Audubon Society for the Conservation of Birds

The Aims and Principles of the Indiana Audubon Society

FIRST: To encourage the study of birds, particularly in the schools, and to disseminate literature relating to them.

SECOND: To work for the betterment and enforcement of the State and Federal Laws relating to birds.

THIRD: To discourage the wearing of any feathers except those of the ostrich and domestic fowls.

FORTH: To discourage in every possible way the wanton destruction of wild birds and their eggs.

FIFTH: To restore to our wild birds, wherever practicable, the natural environment of the forest and shrubbery which gave them food, protection, and seclusion.

The Indiana Audubon Society depends for its support on the contributions of its members and friends. It should have an income to meet all fixed expenses. The present income is totally inadequate to meet the urgent and incessantly growing demands.

Haven't you some friends whom you can introduce to join? Donations or bequests could not be left to a worthier cause.
