PBC’S 70TH ANNIVERSARY
Threescore and ten years ago our fathers and mothers brought forth in this county a new club, conceived in love of wild birds and dedicated to the proposition that cats should not eat them. (with apologies to Abe)
     On February 6, 2008, the Piedmont Bird Club celebrates its 70th anniversary! Originally formed by a group of earnest Greensboro citizens who were concerned about the depredations by cats on the bird population, the Club has evolved into a large association of birders who not only like to feed and watch birds, but who also actively work to educate the public and promote habitat conservation.
