Nature Education along the Yellowstone River in Billings, Montana
The Montana Audubon Center lies in the heart of the 72,000 square mile Yellowstone River Basin and within minutes of the urban center of Billings.
We provide place-based conservation education about birds, other wildlife, and natural ecosystems to more than 20,000 visitors annually.
Based at the Norm Schoenthal Field Lab and in partnership with the Yellowstone River Parks Association, we work with students of all ages- from our Fledglings Nature Preschool and school field trips to summer camps and programs for families and adults.
