Welcome to the Sangre de Cristo Audubon Society

We are a recognized chapter of the National Audubon Society, with a membership region that covers most of north-central New Mexico and includes Santa Fe, Taos, Los Alamos, Las Vegas and many other communities. We take our name from the iconic Sangre de Cristo Mountains, which extend from the Colorado border to just south of Santa Fe. Habitats within our region range from riparian areas along the Rio Grande, Pecos and Canadian rivers to the short-grass prairie of eastern New Mexico and forested mountains that in places rise above timberline to over 13,000 feet.
As part of one of the nation’s oldest and most effective science-based environmental organizations, we focus on educating the public and advocating for a wide variety of conservation issues that will help preserve diverse species and their habitats for decades to come.
We recognize that Sangre de Cristo Audubon Society represents a landscape that has been occupied for millennia by peoples of diverse cultural backgrounds. We honor that diversity and believe that just as we strive to protect biodiversity, we must include and respect the many peoples and cultures that call northern New Mexico home.
