Important Bird Areas
Needed: Bird Survey Teams for IBA Program
The Arizona Important Bird Areas (IBA) Program documents, identify, and conserve our most important areas for birds in Arizona. Audubon Arizona and Tucson Audubon Society coordinates this statewide program. We need your help as we begin to investigate bird use of proposed IBAs during migration and breeding.
