Our Mission
Upcoming Events

All our events are free to attend.
Hotspots
Manatee County Audubon Society
Hotspots are shared locations where birders may report their sightings most often in Manatee County. These areas are conducive to bird watching and are places in our community where birders would likely enjoy birding.
Felts Preserve
Felts Audubon Preserve, a 28-acre public preserve, is known for its walking trails and bird-watching opportunities throughout the scenic, park-like bird sanctuary. The owners, Manatee County Audubon Society (MCAS), committed to placing a permanent conservation easement on the land, fulfilling the dream of original landowners, Otis and Anita Felts, who hoped the land would never be developed.
