<p>Last August, I told you about the <a href="https://seattleaudubon.org/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Seattle Audubon Society</a>, a community-based bird conservation and birding organisation where I was a member, and its decision to change its name to be more inclusive to people from all walks of life (more <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/grrlscientist/2022/08/14/whats-in-a-name-the-seattle-audubon-society-intends-to-find-out/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>).
