Our sanctuaries are maintained by a part-time caretaker. Volunteers
assist on trail maintenance days. We
also rely on our sanctuary neighbors to watch over these special
habitats. In
addition, a group of volunteer "Trail Walkers" monitors
individual sanctuaries and reports on their conditions.[Trail
Walkers]
Wildlife
habitat protection involves more than owning and protecting wildlife
sanctuaries.
We
also encourage homeowners and managers of commercial properties
to make their parcels safe and attractive for birds and other
wildlife. (To find out more, visit the Audubon
at Home online resources from National Audubon.)
Reducing
impervious surfaces, protecting water quality, planting native
trees, shrubs, and wildflowers and reducing pesticide use are
healthy actions that benefit both wildlife and people.
Come
visit our sanctuaries!
They are open every day from dawn to dusk free of charge.
