During his time at Mill Grove, John James Audubon became a pioneer in portraying birds and other wildlife in natural settings, painting many North American birds with remarkable accuracy of color and realism. These paintings would eventually be compiled into in his famous book, The Birds of America.

Each month, Museum staff will share fascinating facts about Audubon and his artwork before revealing another of the 435 plates represented in The Birds of America.

Come early to meet one of our Bird Ambassadors before the page turning, and learn more about the birds Audubon loved.
