Great news for the #Everglades! The US Army Corps of Engineers was allocated $1.1 billion of the infrastructure bill funding to help improve water quality and increase the region’s resilience. fl.audubon.org/news/unprecede…

Nature has lost one of its most ardent advocates today. Being a student of Professor Wilson inspired me to become a biologist and devote my career to conservation. He will be sorely missed. @EOWilsonFndtn half-earthproject.org/e-o-wilson-dar…

Birds bring me so much joy and I see that in the team at Audubon as well. I've been honored and inspired by the opportunity to work with Audubon’s outstanding staff and volunteers, and I'm looking forward to building a brighter future for birds and the planet together.

Birds will be safer in this country thanks to the leadership of the Biden-Harris administration. Reinstating these protections will restore decades of bipartisan precedent. #ProtectTheBirds

Passing the Recovering America's Wildlife Act in the House will provide much needed resources to conserve more than 800 species of birds. #BirdsTellUs to urgently invest in conservation to protect them from the effects of a changing climate. audubon.org/news/us-house-…

Last week, protections were restored to the Tongass National Forest in Alaska, which holds 44% of all the carbon stored in the U.S. National Forest system. Banning roads and logging here will help maintain the forest as an ecological stronghold. audubon.org/conservation/t…

This week, the @EPA restored Clean Water Act protections to wetlands along the Mississippi River that provide important habitat for millions of migratory birds every spring and fall. A great win-win for birds and people.

As more oiled birds are found on the Southern California coast, we must redouble our efforts to move away from fossil fuels and toward a cleaner future for people and wildlife.

By tracking birds like the Roseate Spoonbill, conservationists with @AudubonFL learn about the changing health of the Everglades. We must do more to protect this irreplaceable landscape.

Wandering Spoonbills Tell Us What We Need to Protect the Everglades
Jerry Lorenz of Audubon Florida tracked this species to shed light on how the iconic "River of Grass" is changing, for better or worse.

Anyone can be a climate scientist! By reporting the birds you see in yards, parks, or cities, community science provides critical insight to understanding how climate affects birds. #BirdsTellUs

Wetlands are vital to birds and people. They store carbon and protect against flooding. A new poll in Indiana, which has lost 85% of its wetlands, shows overwhelming support for protecting these critical remaining habitats. #BirdsTellUs

I am traveling to Montreal this week to take part in #COP15. Birds are a key indicator of biodiversity loss, and we need to listen to what they're telling us about how climate change and other threats are affecting their habitats to protect our larger environment. #BirdsTellUs

Audubon has sent a delegation of staff to the #COP15 biodiversity conference in Montreal. Birds are a harbinger of biodiversity loss and by protecting them, we can protect larger ecosystems. #BirdsTellUs audubon.org/news/birds-and…

Understanding the difference between native plants, non-native plants, & invasive plants can be tricky at first. However, the key takeaway is that growing native plants is one of the best ways we can protect birds and the places they need. bit.ly/3hQgGbE #PlantsForBirds
