About us

The Golden Gate Bird Alliance, formerly the Golden Gate Audubon Society, engages people to experience the wonder of birds, and translate that wonder into action; and protect native bird populations and their habitats. Golden Gate Audubon is an independent, nonprofit organization with its own membership, budget and programs. Although we are a chapter of National Audubon, becoming a Supporting Member of Golden Gate Audubon is separate and distinct from membership in the National Audubon Society. Golden Gate Audubon Supporting Members receive The Gull newsletter, and play a critical role in protecting local birds and their habitats.

Accessible Birding for Every Body In 2012, enthusiastic birder and Golden Gate Bird Alliance volunteer Chris Okon started to avoid going on birding trips after experiencing increasingly debilitating symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS). But then Chris found a community for birders with access challenges: BIRDABILITY. https://ow.ly/VNL650S30zx 📷: courtesy of Virginia Rose #inclusion #diversity #birding #mobility #birdingforeveryone #Birdability #DisabledBirders #DisabilityPride #nationaldisabilityday Golden Gate Bird Alliance Birdability

This new study makes it clear that our work to reduce bird collisions with buildings and glass is even more important than we thought. Another recent study found that only 7% of collision victims on a single-family home were immediately fatal (Samuels et al, 2022). If subsequent studies find similar results it means that 1 Billion birds annually is likely a significant underestimate .

BREAKING: NYC Bird Alliance and collaborators just published research in PLOS ONE confirming OVER 1 BILLION BIRDS die annually from building collisions in the U.S.—far more than previously thought. Our study emphasizes that prevention is key to saving bird populations, and there are easy solutions to the collision problems. Collisions are most often fatal. For this study, researchers from NYC Bird Alliance, Fordham University, American Bird Conservancy, and Stony Brook University reviewed outcomes from over 3,000 #birds that were injured in building collisions and brought to rehabilitators across multiple states. Even under the best of conditions, only 40% of birds survived. More than half of U.S. bird species are in decline, and collisions due to reflective glass and artificial light are a leading cause. This is a #biodiversity crisis we can't ignore! Fortunately, #birdfriendly building design solutions exist and are easy to implement. Learn how you can make your building bird-friendly: https://lnkd.in/emc3ZJpZ Examples of bird-friendly retrofits in NYC include the Javits Center, One Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, and Brookfield Place Terminal. See examples of bird-safe retrofits here: https://lnkd.in/e9zhtzUb You can also help save birds by reducing our city’s artificial light at night. Turn #lightsout, help NYC Bird Alliance pass #lightsoutnyc policies, and invest in #birdsafe design. Learn more about how to help us pass Lights Out laws in NYC: https://lnkd.in/eUXimdq8 Easy solutions are available, and our birds need them!

We’re #hiring. Know anyone who might be interested in leading birding field trips in the Bay Area for private groups?
