Birds of a Feather: the Coconut Grove Audubon Society, 1915-1917
Birds of a Feather: The Coconut Grove Audubon Society, 1915-1917 By Emily Perry Dieterich Three Things to Remember A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all Heaven in a rage. A skylark wounded on the wing Doth make a cherub cease to sing. He who shall hurt the little wren Shall never be beloved by men. William Blake Organized bird protection in the United States began with the formation of the American Ornithological Union (AOU) in 1883. Addressing this specific concern, member William Brewster, curator of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard, moved to form a "Committee for the Protection of North American Birds" at the Union's annual meeting in 1884 (Robin Doughty, Feather Fashions and Bird Preservations:157-58). The original Audubon Society was born several years later, the brainchild of the noted naturalist and outdoorsman, George Bird Grinnell, editor of FieldandStream, the leading sportsmen's magazine of the time. Although a big game hunter himself, Grinnell was appalled by the slaughter of both game and non-game birds. "Gunners shot them for sport," he wrote, "small boys killed them for fun, and egg collectors robbed their nests." (Carl Buchheister and Frank Graham, "From the Swamps and Baclc" 7). While researching this story, Emily Perry Dieterich was director of environ- mental education for the Tropical Audubon Society. Currently she is the research historian for Metro-Dade Department of Historical Preservation. 6 TEQUESTA In February 1886 Grinnell suggested in a front page editorial of his magazine that "concerned men and women create an organi- zation for the protection of wild birds and their eggs, its administration to be undertaken by the magazine's staff." Grinnell had grown up near the home of Audubon and even attended a school for young boys conducted by Lucy Audubon. -
