2025-2026 Duck Stamps Are on Sale

One of the easiest ways that anyone can support bird habitat conservation is by buying Federal Duck Stamps - among the most successful conservation tools ever created to protect habitat for birds and other wildlife.

Federal Duck Stamps are conservation revenue stamps - 98 percent of the purchase price goes directly to help acquire and protect wetland habitat and purchase conservation easements for the National Wildlife Refuge System.

Wetlands acquired with Duck Stamp dollars help purify water, aid in flood control, reduce soil erosion and sedimentation, and enhance outdoor recreation opportunities.

National Audubon Society supports the purchase of Duck Stamps. Since its inception in 1934, the program has raised more than $1.1 billion[1] to protect 6 million acres on 300 national wildlife refuges. Tampa Audubon encourages everyone interested in conservation to purchase a stamp.
