HURRICANE UPDATE
Hurricanes have ravaged the Caribbean and American South. What was their impact on birds?
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.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was set to ban chlorpyrifos ... and then reversed course. Here's why you should care.
Chlorpyrifos ban needed to protect people and birds

A chlorpyrifos ban is needed to protect people and wildlife alike: EPA scientists have agreed that there is no way to use the pesticide safely.1 day ago
Why every protection has to come via the Government? Whatever happened to social stigma, Public pressure and boycotts? If there is no vigilance, active pressure and participation from the Public and it has to come from the Government, every time, then one election cycle and one or two subsequent subversive appointments at the right positions can and will upend things, as it is happening now, mainly for profiteering.
Seems to border on treason to me -- endangering the citizens of the US for the betterment of a select few!
Stupidity reigns these days at the EPA, now converted into the PBPA (Protect Big Polluters Agency).
TrumpWorld does not care about such things. Sad and infuriating.
bohužel, vyskytuje se i v naších přípravcích proti hmyzu např. reldan

Amazing
Our #birdoftheweek is Black-throated Sparrow. Most often found on dry desert hillsides and salt flats of American Southwest, where its sweet song is a feature of the landscape. Who's seen this handsome bird lately? See video: abcbirds.org/bird/black-throated-sparrow/

Beautiful very nice
What do I learn from observing this bird? You can see its eyes are looking up. Thus it is singing with heartfelt zeal to Jehovah God. Must Imitate the birds when I get the opportunity to sing
Sometimes the littlest birds have the biggest songs.
