Dear KAREN, When climate shifts disrupt the timing of the seasons, the consequences for migratory birds can be dire. Consider the Broad-tailed Hummingbird, which relies on specific seasonal resources for breeding and feeding. If the spring arrives too early, these resources may not be available, leading to food scarcity as they migrate. This situation is exacerbated if birds who couldn't quickly adapt arrive past the peak time of their food resources or if a cold snap causes ecosystem collapse. Birds can't escape the impacts of the climate crisis. But today, you can do twice as much to help them survive. Until midnight tonight, your first annual gift will be matched, up to $50,000, to provide a brighter future for the birds we love. Will you donate right now? | | | | |
We do this work because we know that by joining together, we can reverse this alarming trend for birds and mitigate the effects of climate change on people and the planet. With bird lovers like you by our side, we defend laws that protect birds and promote strong new legislation to keep important habitats resilient. We fight for the bold action birds need now. Our comprehensive program of research, advocacy, education, and hands-on conservation is a powerful force in preventing future extinctions and helping declining populations recover. But it is only possible with your continued partnership. | | | | |
The birds you love are in crisis | | | | |
Altered seasons threaten migratory birds. | | | | | |
This challenge is compounded by habitat loss, extreme weather, and fatal building collisions. | | | | | |
We can change course for the birds we love if we act now. | | | | | |
