In 1924, the East Tennessee Ornithological Society was founded under the leadership of H.P. Ijams, who served as the club's first president. The Ijams’ "Island Home" was their rallying point. A few years later, the group changed its name to the Knoxville Chapter of the Tennessee Ornithological Society (KTOS).
The bird club still meets at Ijams once or twice a year. In early June they met to celebrate their 90th Anniversary where it all began.
Happy Anniversary!
