Habitat at Home

Your outdoor space isn't just a yard; it's part of your home. It can be home to the birds, reptiles and pollinators of the southwest as well.

It is surprisingly easy to transform your own space, enhancing its beauty, and restoring bird and wildlife habitats. You can help make the urban landscape safe and welcoming for birds.

The Habitat at Home program helps community members transform their outdoor spaces, making them more welcoming to birds and other wildlife. Our concepts are based on the fundamentals of Reconciliation Ecology, helping everyone to nurture habitats in our urban spaces.

START BUILDING YOUR HABITAT TODAY

We encourage everyone with access to an outdoor space, whether it is small or large, to join and participate in our mission of creating urban habitat.

When you register, you will receive a Habitat at Home yard sign, educational materials, and resources curated by Tucson Audubon Staff and local experts. You will learn how to turn your yard into beneficial habitat for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife. Do you already have a habitat at home?
