🌿Here at Audubon International, we encourage our members to create and maintain habitats that can support a wide variety of wildlife. Well, sometimes our members do this a little TOO well and end up like the Country Club of Miami with Florida Burrowing Owls taking up residence throughout the golf course. 🦉Florida Burrowing Owls are a protected species, and the club does a great job of marking their burrows with informational signage and roping them off if necessary to keep them a safe distance away from the public. 🙌 While it may make bunker and fairway maintenance a little difficult, the team is dedicated to protecting and promoting such a unique species that has decided to call the golf course home. 🏌️♂️Just one more great reason to keep your golf ball out of the bunker! #ACSPforGolf #FloridaBurrowingOwls #WildlifeConservation #SustainableGolf

A Global Leader in Environmental Education & Certification
About us
Mission To deliver high-quality environmental education and to facilitate the sustainable management of land, water, wildlife, and other natural resources in all places people live, work, and play. History In 1987, the Audubon Society of New York State was born, or perhaps more accurately, reborn. First established nearly 100 years earlier by conservation giants Theodore Roosevelt, Frank Chapman, and John Burroughs, this original Audubon group from New York ceased meeting by the mid-1930s. Nearly five decades later, Ronald G. Dodson re-established the organization as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit under a broader banner of environmental education and sustainable resource management. Very quickly, the reach of the environmental education and certification programs expanded beyond New York. As a result, in 1996, the organization began doing business as Audubon International to better reflect the true scope of its operations. Although, we have no formal affiliation with the National Audubon Society or the other 500-plus Audubon organizations worldwide, we work with and partner with many of these groups to promote common goals. Through education, technical assistance, certification, and recognition, Audubon International facilitates the implementation of environmental management practices that ensure natural resources are sustainably used and conserved.
