Formed in 1957 the Roanoke Valley Bird Club was formed as a local chapter of the Virginia Society of Ornithology. Our group of about 200 members promotes an interest in the study of birds and conservation of wild bird habitat. Our monthly programs are educational and entertaining. But above all, members enjoy good fellowship by participating in birdwatching field trips and other activities.
