The Oconee Rivers Audubon Society is a group of people brought together by a love of birds and nature. Our chapter consists of over 350 members representing a diversity of ages and birding skills. We stive to promote conservation and provide a voice for environmental issues. We also provide a forum for the exchange of information via monthly newsletters and meetings.

Oconee Rivers Audubon organizes several local conservation projects each year, such as putting up nest boxes for various species. We also give monthly public presentations on subjects related to birds, nature, and conservation.

"No man can by natural right oblige the lands...to the payment of debts contracted by him. For if he could, he (man) might during his own life eat up the use of the lands for several generations to come... No generation can contract debts greater than may be paid during the course of its own existence."
   -Thomas Jefferson
