The Redwood Region Audubon Society (RRAS) is an energetic community of volunteers in far northwestern California.

We advocate for the protection of birds and wildlife by supporting local conservation efforts to protect wildlife and their habitat.
We have birding field trips every weekend, and a trail workday the 4th Saturday of each month, community programs September - June, plus numerous other activities for everyone.
