by Gergo F. from Tacoma, WA (2018-10-05 13:44:22.0)

Tahoma Audubon is a wonderful and amazing place where people come together and connect with nature by the power of teaching and understanding how the world around us works. I would recommend everyone to come and check out Tahoma Audubon Society in University Place if you want a chance to learn more about birding, community outreach or just to enjoy a quiet stroll in our gorgeous park!
