Medford, Wisconsin Bird Club

History

The Chequamegon Bird Club was formed in Medford, Wisconsin, in 1981 by renowned ornithologist, Sam Robbins. As a result of the enthusiastic response he received as a guest speaker on a local radio program, Robbins was asked to teach a 1 hour class at the university center. The formal organization of the Chequamegon Bird Club was at the request of the students of that class. The membership number now stands at more than 40 members.

Mission Statement:

1. To promote the study of birds, their habits, food and habitat requirements
2. To promote human appreciation of birds and other forms of the natural world
3. To contribute to general knowledge relating to the distribution of birds in North Central America
4. To promote the care and protection of birds in their natural environment
