This Black-throated Blue Warbler is symbolic of the early migration of songbirds into south Florida that will inspire participants at the 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Tropical Audubon Society.

The Tropical Audubon Society, the local Audubon chapter in Miami that was established in 1947, is celebrating their 75th anniversary on Earth Day and throughout the weekend with an entire weekend of birding and conservation events. Best known for their support of Biscayne Bay and Everglades National Park, Tropical Audubon has long been south Florida’s “Voice of Conservation.”

Weekend events will include the Leica-sponsored birding walk Saturday morning at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park on Key Biscayne to search of migrating warblers, vireos, thrushes, tanagers, cuckoos, buntings, and more. There’s also a Birthday Bash, a host of speakers, Birdstock’s top-flight acoustic musicians, and Sunday’s Member’s Migration, sponsored by Leica Store Miami that includes a free raffle of a Leica Trinovid Binocular, a presentation by Everglades authors, along with speakers and conservation heroes, plus an afternoon birding walk at the Steinberg Nature Center.
