In This Issue of Avian Architectural Digest...

Nests teach us how birds think. Birds construct their nests from just about any material they can get their claws on, revealing how each particular bird sees the place where it will raise its young, what materials it needs, and location it prefers. Each nest is a map of one bird’s experience on Earth. Take a peek into the world of avian architecture with these magnificent bird nests. Browse the photo gallery ([link removed])

Why Climate Matters for Birds, on Earth Day and Every Day

On Saturday, we celebrated Earth Day, a time to appreciate the natural world and commit to a better future for our planet. The science is clear: climate change poses an existential threat to birds and the places they need, but there’s still time to act. For Earth Day, Audubon's Vice President of Climate Sarah Rose looks at our warming world and how Audubon is acting as a powerful voice for the birds that need our help. Keep reading ([link removed])

Key Refuges for Birds and Wildlife in a Changing Climate

We are in a race to protect the world’s biodiversity. While the Biden administration’s America the Beautiful initiative outlines key strategies to address this, there is a glaring gap in the plan: exactly where are the places that we should conserve? In a study published in Frontiers in Ecology & the Environment, Audubon identifies locations in North America likely to sustain biodiversity under varying levels of climate warming, known as "climate refugia."

Audubon's Project Puffin Inspires Seabird Recovery Worldwide

In June 1973, Audubon first combined translocation and social attraction to successfully bring a healthy population of Atlantic Puffins back to Maine’s coast. Now, 50 years later, we're celebrating the success and impact of this project on so many other seabird colonies. New research published in the Proceedings of the National Academies of Sciences synthesizes 70 years of seabird restoration projects like Audubon's Project Puffin across 36 countries to show the effectiveness of restoring seabird populations worldwide. Read on for more about the study’s outcomes and the tool itself. Learn more ([link removed])

Stop the Lesser Prairie-Chicken Extinction Act

Last November, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed the Lesser Prairie-Chicken under the Endangered Species Act to help ensure its survival. But now, this protection is in jeopardy as Congress attempts to overturn the science-based decision. Please urge your members of Congress to oppose efforts to remove the Lesser Prairie-Chicken from the Endangered Species Act. Take action ([link removed])

Birds Tell Us and We Need to Listen

Birds live nearly everywhere on earth, so when their habitats are threatened by climate change, we all need to listen. This is why Audubon is making the climate crisis a top priority. Help us as we work toward science-based solutions by spreading the word with our statement apparel, tote bags, and more. Explore the collection ([link removed])
