Our Mission

The mission of the Avian Science Center is to promote ecological awareness and informed decision making through the collection, synthesis, and dissemination of science-based information on western birds.

 

Summer Research and Education Projects

 

The Avian Science Center is gearing up for our field season! This summer we will be conducting bird surveys across Montana for various projects and operating four songbird banding stations as part of our education project. Our bird banding stations are open to the public, so it's a great opportunity to learn about our Montana birds. For information about the bird banding project and the schedule, click here, and we hope to see you this summer!
