Non-profit membership organization dedicated to securing the cultivation of public sentiment in the preservation of Lancaster County's native bird life since our founding in Dec. 1937. Throughout its history, LCBC has been dedicated to four essential goals:
• Observe and record the bird life in Lancaster County
• Share that information with members, the scientific community, and the broader inte
rested public
• Provide educational opportunities on all aspects of bird life including identification, behavior, and habitat
• Nurture public attitudes and support for the preservation of our native bird life. Like much of southcentral Pennsylvania, Lancaster County contains an important diversity of habitats for both breeding and migratory species. The Susquehanna River, the Furnace Hills, the Lancaster County Parks System, Octoraro Lake, Muddy Run Reservoir, Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area, sites owned by the Lancaster County Conservancy, and our vast agricultural areas all provide excellent birding opportunities. Whether it is at any of these areas or in your own backyard, we wish you Happy Birding!
