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.

Lindsay Thiessen these are neat too
I like how the feathers on its breast look quilted.
We had 6 in the garden at one point in the garden; beautiful
Gorgeous bird! Hope to see one someday!
I've been seeing a lot of those lately in my yard
I used to hear them on Vashon Island, WA but have not heard any this year... so sad.
We had one (male) in our apple tree in Michigan a few years ago.
Beautiful
Almost 90 percent of all recorded bird extinctions in the last 500 years have occurred on islands. Why? Because most island birds have evolved without mammalian predators. As a result, island species are naïve to non-native, terrestrial predators, and their populations are quickly devastated by introduced mammals such as domestic cats and rats. Find out more from ABC's Brad Keitt:

History tells us that islands are the epicenters of extinction. Yet we also have the tools and the knowledge to save island birds and make them beacons of conservation success.21 hours ago
Many birds are in a race against time. Canada Warbler has lost 65 percent of its population in the past 50 years, and the downward trend continues. This #EarthDay, will you help us take action for the birds that need it most? You can count on us to use your funds wisely; our 4-star Charity Navigator rating says it all! Thank you, from all of us at American Bird Conservancy.
