  • Great Backyard Bird Count



    The Great Backyard Bird Count is a great way for people of all ages to connect with nature. Audubon and Cornell University invite you to get involved and become a Citizen Scientist. It’s easy – just count the birds in your backyard, local park or another location and report what you see online at birdcount.org. Taking part in the GBBC is a great way to take a mid-winter nature break, and it gives scientists important information about birds and our environment.





  • Resources



    The use of citizen-science networks often allows scientists to accomplish research objectives more feasibly than would otherwise be possible. In addition, these projects aim to promote public engagement with the research, as well as with science in general. Some programs provide materials specifically for use by individuals to partcipate or broaden their "scope" of knowledge.





  • Winter Bird Watch



    Join the National Audubon Society in watching and enjoying the birds that call Mississippi home in winter. Beginning Saturday, November 16 and every Saturday through February 13th, the Pascagoula River Audubon Center will host its annual “Winter Bird Watch”.





  • Annotated Checklist of Coastal Birds



    It has been over twenty years since the publication of Birds and Birding on the Mississippi Coast by Toups and Jackson, 1987. Much of the information it presents is still valid (if you have a copy hang on to it, it is very unlikely it will ever by duplicated) but also much has changed; regrettably, mostly for the worst.

  • Volunteer Spotlight



    As anyone who works with volunteers knows, the great ones do not wait to be asked to do something, they just look for something to do. Although that description fits many of the Pascagoula River Audubon Center (PRAC) volunteers.......
