Serving All of Western Maine

About the Western Maine Chapter

The Western Maine Audubon Society was formed in 1970 as a chapter of the National Audubon Society.  When the National Audubon Society and the Maine Audubon Society merged in 2000, the Western Maine chapter became a chapter of Maine Audubon Society

Chapter Mission

The mission of the Western Maine Chapter of Maine Audubon is to educate and engage the people of Western Maine, focusing on birds, other wildlife, and their habitats, for the benefit of local communities and their natural environment.

Bluebird Booklet Available


Several years ago, the WMAS Chapter produced a booklet entitled Welcome Back Bluebirds, a simple and handy reference to attracting and housing Eastern Bluebirds and other cavity nesting species. Periodically we offer these booklets to WMAS members. With thoughts of spring on our minds and the imminent return of Tree Swallows and Eastern Bluebirds to central and western Maine, this is a great time to once again make the booklets available. Also included in the booklet are simple instructions for nest box construction, for those who tend to be industrious in the workshop during the final weeks of winter.

Anyone interested in receiving an individual copy of Welcome Back Bluebirds may contact Wendy Howes at curiousbooks@verizon.net. Multiple copies to one address are available for a small postage charge.
