The Urban Bird Call


Our glossy print publication (formerly known as The Urban Audubon) is mailed to NYC Bird Alliance members three times a year. It connects readers with the latest news on our organization’s activities and events, explores interesting topics in New York City birding and environmental conservation, profiles bird species and their habitat in the NYC Area, and provides critical information members can use to help our conservation efforts—from using bird-friendly glass to protecting green space.
