Born from an unprecedented partnership among science, conservation, and technology organizations, the Bird Migration Explorer is a first-of-its-kind, interactive, digital platform that visualizes the heroic annual journeys of 458 North American migratory species.
Birds tell us about the health of our environment, and by mapping where, when, and how extensively species are exposed to human activities and environmental changes, we can better understand the challenges birds face and develop solutions that will maximize benefits for birds and people.
With the Explorer, you can take a closer look at your favorite bird as it completes its annual migration using the Species Migration maps, discover the migratory birds in your community and see how they connect you to other places across the Western Hemisphere on the Locations maps, and learn about many of the challenges migratory birds face during the year with the Conservation Challenges maps. For tips on how to use the Explorer, watch our explainer video.
Join us as we enter the golden age of migration science and technology, furthering our mission by changing the way we see and understand the wonders of bird migration. Learn more about migratory birds than you ever thought possible with the Bird Migration Explorer today. |
