As we celebrate bird migration season, it’s critical to remember how fatal artificial lights and skyglow can be to migrating birds. Pledge to stand with us as we call on excess lighting to be turned off to help ensure birds have safe passage. https://t.co/sCwuR1mhfo #BirdFriendly

I’d bet money a huge percentage of the population has never seen an Osprey’s tongue. Let’s change that. 🤪

All pollinators are unique, but they share some basic needs. 🧵

1: They need flowering plants that provide pollen and nectar for food. They especially rely on plants native to their region and need access to flowers that bloom at different times.

Who's ready for one of the most amazing meteor showers of the year?

The Perseids Meteor Shower peaks on August 12th and can rain down over 100 meteors per hour! Originating from the Comet Swift-Tuttle this shower is best seen between midnight and dawn and away from city lights.

Bees are dying in record numbers.

One way you can help them is by planting a garden filled with native flowers that have not been treated with chemicals. #RejectRoundup

Green herons mostly eat small fish, but also enjoy amphibians, insects and even rodents. Watch for these stocky birds searching for food near water.

Costa Rica, once home to rampant logging, has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done.

Twitter's iconic bird isn't the only one disappearing.

👉 Today, one in eight bird species are at risk of extinction.

But we can save them and their habitats – benefiting people and nature across the globe. RT to spread the word! #TwitterX #TwitterLogo

Look at this bee. It's absolutely loaded!

Bees eat nectar and pollen and help pollinate plants by carrying pollen from flower to flower. Got bees? We'd love to see 'em!

Shorebirds are in dangerous decline across the Atlantic flyway. We need concerted conservation action across borders to restore their populations to heath.

Thank you Scott Weidensaul and @BostonGlobe for this fantastic coverage.
