The Acadiana Master Naturalist-Birding Program will take applications until filled. Our first two workshops are mostly instruction with some field time. Most of the other workshops are almost exclusively field time. The fee for the program is $250.

Program dates are July/August through April/May of the following year.  To apply to the birding program, please visit our Birding Application Page.  If you have any questions, send an email to AMNBirding@ gmail.com. If you do not have email, call (337) 291-8448 so they can put you in touch with the birding director.
