PBC is on Hiatus for the Summer
The summer months tend to be fairly quiet for birding – other than the summer resident species – and many of our members plan vacations, so the PBC does not conduct activities during June, July or August. (The one exception is our Bluebird nest box monitoring, which continues through the summer).
The Club's various committees are busy planning programs, field trips, social events and conservation activities for the coming fall, winter and spring. The 2024-25 schedule of activities will be announced in mid-to-late August.
In the meantime, check out the Finding Birds in Guilford County section of our website for interesting places to bird in the area (see the description below).

The Piedmont Young Birders is an organization for high school and middle school students, sponsored jointly by the Piedmont Bird Club and the T. Gilbert Pearson Audubon Society. It is an excellent opportunity for our members to share their love of birds and the natural world with the next generation. Meetings consist of a combination of guided activities to learn about birds and spending time discovering and identifying birds first-hand. Membership is open to students in the Triad area in grades 6-12.
