NOTE: SIX NEW LEARNING KITS NOW AVAILABLE! Audubon Learning Kits are located for pick-up at Lone Pine State Park, and you can RESERVE THEM ONLINE! Lone Pine Visitor Center Staff can assist you with checkouts and returns. Call them at 755-2706. Trunks are available for pickup from the Lone Pine Visitor Center during open hours:

Flathead Audubon Society has educational materials for teachers, home-schoolers, and others interested in birds, their habitats, and conservation. All Kits are free of charge.
Use these Kits and materials to build, enhance, or tie into a class unit on birds or a complementary habitat topic! These hands-on and interactive materials will provide your students with unique and fun learning opportunity.
Please note: Four of our new Kits are designed to accompany a 7th-8th grade learning sequence culminating in a field trip. They are reserved during certain seasons for classes enrolled in those sequences, for a maximum of one week’s use. See each kit for specifics.
To find out more about these Learning Kits, just click on a specific Kit in the scroll-down menu, or contact the Flathead Audubon Conservation Educator at educator@flatheadaudubon.org.
