An arm of Eyes in the Sky program “Meet Your Wild Neighbor” (MYWN) is the flagship science and conservation education program of Santa Barbara Audubon Society (SBAS). In these 1-hour weekly sessions, kids get to learn about the ecosystem around them and meet beautiful live hawks, falcons, and owls rescued from the wild. The program lasts 5 weeks and focuses on science, birds, nature, conservation, and outdoor learning. In the 2019-2020 year, SBAS is presenting the program in 6 classrooms across 4 local schools, teaching 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-grade curriculum. Read More
