Extreme weather harms birds

25 Donors Needed Right Away

Giving Challenge Deadline: Midnight Tonight

Donate Monthly

As Sandhill Cranes migrate southeastward toward Florida for the winter, they need to stop to rest and feed along the way. But what happens when extreme drought means they can’t use their habitual stopovers? They must keep searching for safety, making them vulnerable to lethal dehydration.

We can’t leave birds high and dry in the face of extreme weather events like this. That’s why we’re asking dedicated bird lovers like you to start a monthly donation today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, your gift will help unlock an additional $5,000 for birds and their habitats. But hurry! This offer expires at midnight tonight.

How birds are impacted by extreme weather

Crippling droughts can push birds to their physiological limits and make them vulnerable to lethal dehydration.

Intense and long-lasting rain storms lead to prolonged migrations and potentially higher bird mortality.

Megafires are destroying vital habitats, forcing many to search for new places to nest and forage.

With more than a century of expertise, we know what it takes to protect birds at risk. Audubon was instrumental in championing the need for increased focus on western water in President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act—the most significant climate legislation ever enacted in the United States. But there is more work to be done, so please be one of 25 supporters we’re counting on to join us with a monthly donation today—and when you do, you’ll help unlock $5,000 more for birds and their habitats.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
