Feminist Bird Club - SF Bay
Welcome! We’re a birdwatching club dedicated to promoting diversity in birding and providing a safe opportunity to connect with the natural world while fundraising to protect the rights of LGBTQIA+ folks, women and people of color.  

We believe that feminism stems from a conviction that all people should be treated equally and that a feminist is an activist for everyone.
