In an effort to compliment our chapters' and members' dedication to environmental education, the North Carolina State Office is creating the 2nd edition of Audubon Adventures focused solely on North Carolina. With the state-specific companion, students will learn about the birds, other wildlife and habitat found in their own backyards. Imagine how exciting it will be for them to recognize the birds and habitats covered in their companion, and then observe changes throughout the year and for years to come.

Some of the exciting learning possibilities that the NC Audubon Adventures Companion offers kids and teachers include:

• Reinforcing that North Carolina's natural resources are an important, diverse and a vital part of broader themes covered in Audubon Adventures--it really hits home.
• Teaching that conservation begins in your own backyard and schoolyard.
• Giving teachers a North Carolina resource.
• Enhancing Adventures-related field trips and birding in the schoolyard.

Equally exciting as well as satisfying is what the companion says about North Carolina Audubon's commitment to environmental education. We are one of only a few states to have a new state-specific Adventures companion created. North Carolina is helping set the tone for future state-specific editions. We are delighted to share with members of the Audubon family our efforts in expanding our education programs, as well as the benefits of collaboration in education.

The North Carolina companion to Audubon Adventures will make this excellent program an even more exciting and effective learning experience for our kids.
