Special SightingscardinalThe Wisconsin Metro Audubon Society also sponsors and participates in many events outside the regularly scheduled programs. We have such events as the annual Breakfast with the Birds, and field trips throughout the year, including the Sanctuary at Monastery Lake. We also take part in some events including Bird-a-thons, sponsored by the National Audubon Society. These special events are held more infrequently. Please feel free to email us to find out about future special sightings.
