Welcome to the Mascoma Chapter Home Page!

All Chapter trips and meetings are free and open to the public.

We're the Upper (Connecticut River) Valley chapter of the New Hampshire Audubon Society (ASNH). In our chapter's case, the New Hampshire is a bit deceptive, since many of our members are from Vermont! Just to clear up possible confusion, ASNH is not affiliated with the National Audubon Society, or for that matter the State of New Hampshire, but is a separate group that is local to New Hampshire.

We have monthly meetings with guest speakers from September through May, usually on the first Wednesday of each month. Meetings are held in the Mayer room at the Howe Library in Hanover, New Hampshire and start at 7 PM.

What's Coming Up??!

Winner of the Billie Jo Fund Youth Scholarship - Spencer Hardy

Wednesday, February 6, 2008, 7 pm

Birding Texas in the summer????
Yes! During the wet summer of 2007, birding in Texas was great and temperatures were pleasant. Spencer was the lucky recipient of a Billie Jo Johnstone Youth Birder Scholarship from the Mascoma Chapter of New Hampshire Audubon, which he used to attend Camp Tejano - a teen program run by Victor Emanuel Nature Tours (VENT). In this program Spencer will report on his Texas adventures, detailing his experiences birding 4 areas of Texas: Padre Island and the Corpus Christi area, the Hill Country, Big Bend National Park, and the Davis Mountains.
