Our congratulations to the Buena Vista Audubon Society for finalizing its purchase of 3.5 acres of wetlands adjacent to the Buena Vista Lagoon Ecological Reserve in San Diego County. The Audubon chapter raised more than $1.5 million to finalize the purchase. The chapter is now finalizing plans to restore the land to serve a variety of birds, including the endangered Ridgeway's Rail. Audubon California was able to help this project with funding from the Wimberly Foundation.
