HELP HAWAIIAN BIRDS
‘I’wi and many other beautiful and threatened Hawaiian bird species need your support.
where 20+ years of bold action, focus on results, and partnership are bringing back the birds across the Western Hemisphere. Our mission is clear: to conserve native birds and their habitats across the Americas. In doing so, we benefit not only American birds but all other species as well.
Our fearless approach to conservation drives all that we do, and the results are measurable. We’ve made significant strides to safeguard rare birds, conserve important bird habitat, reduce top threats to birds, and build an Americas-wide community of bird conservationists.
Toxic neonicotinoids are in hundreds of products, from seeds to salad bars.
With support from the Leon Levy Foundation, we work to make wind energy "bird-smart."
With our partners, we're protecting places migratory birds need most.
We're working to make glass less deadly for birds, with support from the Leon Levy Foundation.
With Black Swamp Bird Observatory, we continue to raise concerns about wind energy development in the Great Lakes region--one of the country's most important places for migratory birds. Among many other species, hundreds of Common Loons (shown) use Lake Erie on migration. The Plain Dealer highlights our point of view here:

Very grateful to both organizations. Michigan conservation orgs should be deeply concerned and proactive alongside these two top-notch organizations. Period.

I've read that there are new and emerging technologies that are on the market and being developed for wind and renewable energy. These technologies are supposedly not as land intensive and utilize vibration caused by wind in lieu of large "fans" which kill and injure birds and bats. I wonder when we will see these technologies employed by the wind industry to minimize bird strikes. I would also love to see PV field and arrays be far smaller in size and utilize roads, existing buildings and other less land intensive means to create solar energy. That way green energy can truly be green.
I so wish we could find a safer yet effective design for wind energy devices. I have seen a couple different designs on The Net but never in real life.
Beautiful. I have never seen a Loon.
Too common of a name for such a beautiful bird
Beautiful loon

Window treatments at Patuxent Refuge Visitor Center in Laurel, Md. prevent reflections that confuse birds and cause window strikes. But they also provide a clear view from the inside!
Lynne and Chris Parks designed this solution using CollidEscape. They cut out shapes from a sheet of CollidEscape and applied them in a bird-safe pattern. We’re grateful to the Parks and to Jennie McNicoll, center director, for such a lovely demonstration of Bird-Smart Glass.
You can stop birds from hitting your windows, too! Explore these solutions: abcbirds.org/get-involved/bird-smart-glass/

US Bank Stadium Minneapolis MN could do this !
Yay some turtles too!
I had no idea all of these were available. Thanks for posting.
These windows are a fantastic educational idea too!
Great !
Wow!!!
Marvelous Spatuletail! This tiny, endangered marvel is one of our priority birds. It's found only in Peru, where our partner ECOAN - Asociacion Ecosistemas Andinosprovides habitat in a very special reserve. abcbirds.org/bird/marvelous-spatuletail/

Thanks to all the support of ABC and other friends we are working hardly to increase the numbers of the most beautiful hummingbird of the world. We planted more than two million trees and bushes and in that way we provide a habitat where the little guys can escape from its predators.
I can't imagine why this trait would have developed but it certainly is amazing and beautiful!
Thank you for your amazing work!
It is SO CUTE!!!!!
We saw it there!
Absolutely amazing fascinators

My husband just took this pic in Kauai! We're spending a month in Hawaii and trying to see as many cool birds as possible! Saw the I'iwi on Big Island yesterday!
I saw it in St. Thomas December 2013 and then again in Kauai, HI May 2017. Such a cool bird! ❤️
Creo que ya se debería de prohibir la cacería en todas partes del mundo.🎼🍀💥
