Help Us Protect NY's Grassland Birds

The Washington County Grasslands Important Bird Area (IBA) is critical to the survival of Short-eared Owls in New York State! It supports 10 of 11 of our most imperiled grassland birds and over 100 other bird and animal species. Please help protect these birds and donate today!
