The birds in our communities face a number of daunting challenges. Loss of food. Loss of shelter. Loss of nesting sites. Loss of habitat in urban and suburban communities. These are just a few of the present threats that need to be addressed to protect the birds that bring us so much joy.

The numbers don’t lie; species like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak, have seen a 29% population drop over the last 50 years.
