THE SOCIETY OF URBAN BIRDERS
A hypothetical organization promoting birding in urban settings. Historically presented as an activity of academics and the upper class, The Society of Urban Birders aims to make birding more accessible to a diverse population in city environments. It would spread knowledge about the wide range of birds in metropolitan areas, and give people an opportunity to get outside and appreciate nature, even in the middle of a city.
