Greetings, Below is the Communications team's first issue of the revamped "Audubon in the News." Formerly incorporated into "Audubon Newswire," the new, expanded "Audubon In the News" highlights recent media coverage of Audubon initiatives and programs, state offices, centers, and chapters. It also includes other news of interest to the conservation and birding community. "Audubon in the News" will be sent to staff, national, state and center board members and chapter leaders every other week, alternating with "Audubon Newswire." We hope that you will find "Audubon In the News" interesting and informative. Please note: you may have to register with individual news sites to view some stories. We welcome your suggestions for future issues - please send stories that you think should be included in our round-up to Erica Barton ( <mailto:ebarton@xxxxxxxxxxx> ebarton@xxxxxxxxxxx).
