Audubon on Pinterest
The National Audubon Society's Pinterest: bird photography, award-winning shots, quirky bird facts and ideas for bird-friendly gardens.
What it is
This is the official Pinterest profile of the Audubon Society, which, as its bio says, has worked to protect birds and wildlife since 1905. When we checked, it had about 20,000 followers, 11 boards and more than 1,000 pins.
The boards are small and easy to navigate: "All Things Birds & Birding," "Bird Photography," "Bird Art," "Plants for Birds: Native Gardening," "Bird Activities, Crafts, & DIY" and "Audubon Magazine."
Why we picked it
Birds were made for Pinterest: gorgeous images you want to linger on. Here, those images come with good stories from Audubon magazine. How ducks stand on ice for hours without freezing their feet. Ten fun facts about the house wren, a small bird with major pipes. How birds get through cold winter nights. How to tell nine owl species apart. And there are pins featuring top shots from the 2025 Audubon Photography Awards.
The most recent pins were added in February 2026, so it's not a daily feed, but it's alive.
