Founded in 1916, Birds Connect Seattle, an independently incorporated nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization, was the state’s first conservation organization. It now stresses urban conservation, focused on birds, and following an antiracist path. In partnership with more than 225 volunteers, the organization offers environmental and bird education programs for adults and youth, field trips and neighborhood bird outings, community science projects, and community outreach programs. Its urban conservation mission revolves around its Bird-Safe Seattle initiative focusing on protecting and expanding tree canopy, eliminating bird-window collisions, and reducing the use of toxic pesticides.
