    5 Cubic Feet Two boxes of documents, one box housing a photo album, one box with small publications and loose photographs. 1.35 Cubic Feet 0.32 Cubic Feet

    These records document the activities of the Burroughs Audubon Nature Club of Rochester, the oldest conservation group in the area.

Also included are a variety of glass lantern slides and 35mm slides observing various wild plants, birds, and insects in varying stages of their life cycles. The lantern slides almost exclusively focus on different local bird species and their nests. Within the lantern slides are what seems to be different series of slides mixed in with one another. The previous original series order and list are currently unavailable and the slides have been put together in numerical order by slide.
