Birds like the Piping Plover need your help. This small shorebird is listed as endangered in the Great Lakes and threatened elsewhere. While recently showing signs of recovery thanks to Audubon’s on-the-ground conservation work, its future is far from assured. Like two in three North American bird species, it’s at increasing risk of climate extinction and needs continued efforts and protection to survive.
With support from bird lovers like you, Audubon’s efforts give birds a better chance at survival. Through our nationwide network, we deliver hands-on conservation efforts that are locally focused and guided by region- and bird-specific expertise. And with thorough research, we’ve demonstrated the positive impact of coastal stewardship on birds like the Piping Plover. Efforts like these help create a blueprint for protecting vulnerable birds across the range of habitats where Audubon works. But none of it is possible without your continued partnership.
