New Dark Skies Initiative

The loss of the night sky from artificial light has profound implications for migrating birds, insects and many other species dependent upon dark skies.

Sacajawea Audubon Society is excited to announce that our conservation committee has initiated a new effort to preserve the night sky in Bozeman and the Gallatin Valley.

If you are concerned about light pollution and its impacts, please join our Dark Skies Team! Contact Bonnie Rice or Michael Smith

Go on a Field Trip

t’s the time of year all bird lovers wait for! Please join SAS for one of our many spring field trips. Participants in all trips will meet at the front parking lot of the Museum of the Rockies at 6:45 AM and depart at 7:00 AM unless otherwise noted. Contact the trip leader to reserve a spot and for more details about all trips. If you signed up for a trip, but are unable to attend, please notify the trip leader as others may be on a waiting list.

Field trips are limited to a certain number of participants and vehicles. Car pools will be arranged prior to the trip or at the pre-determined meeting place. Dress for the weather; good footwear is a must as field trip conditions are not always dry. Bring any food or beverages that you will need during the course of the trips, and some of the longer trips might require that you pack a lunch. An offer to help with gas to the person driving is always appreciated but not mandatory. Please turn off your cell phones and keep unnecessary conversations to a minimum while in the field. We encourage all skill levels of birders to participate. Enjoy a good time with the birds and your fellow birders!
