They provide safe habitat, a rest during a 1000+ mile migration route, trap pollution, and more!

How well do recommended #birdcollision solutions work? Volunteers used to find dozens of dead birds/year @NatGalleryCan glass walkway. Since white dots were applied at 2" spacing in 2019, we've found 1!
(The potted trees are new and may be to blame for the casualty.)

Building collisions kill 300 million to a billion birds each year. The Bird-Safe Buildings Act is a common-sense solution to help birds avoid collisions with buildings. Urge Congress to support this important bipartisan legislation—take action today. https://t.co/hW2Fq4JIUD
Do you drink Bird Friendly coffee? Thanks @GrrlScientist and Forbes mag for covering the often confusing world of shade coffee, organic coffee, Fair Trade coffee, and Bird Friendly coffee—the kind you drink can really make a difference for birds! https://t.co/nEklkcmsM8
And we're off! Grab your binoculars and a warm beverage and start counting those birds! Comfy sweatpants and slippers are highly recommended.

New research from Audubon’s Migratory Bird Initiative shows how important CA's Central Valley & the Colorado River Delta are to dozens of species of Western migrants. For the Anna's Hummingbird, roughly 40% of its population migrated through the valley. https://t.co/Ca01D12zKY
In the Prairies, landowners & producers are key partners in conserving what habitats remain for declining grassland birds. Thank you @westernproducer for sharing this story & spreading the word about our Grassland Conservation Incentives Guide. https://t.co/6QSqubia27 @IanCook22
Check out today’s frost! It also serves as a reminder to keep leaves in your plant beds, and not clean everything up too tidily. Leaves are essential for insects, eggs, and animals to survive the winter!
