As we celebrate World Migratory Bird Day on Saturday, those of us in the Northern Hemisphere will be waving goodbye to many of the migrants that have graced our yards, forests, grasslands, and coasts over the past few months. One of the best ways to provide food for these birds on their journeys is to grow native plants. Read more: bit.ly/3YjJ3Vz

The Peregrine Falcon's recovery from near extinction in the 1960s due to the widespread use of DDT is one of the more remarkable success stories in conservation history. Now, more than half a century later, concerned experts are describing Peregrine population declines across the country not seen since those days. What's to blame? Many believe avian flu is the culprit—and the evidence is compelling bit.ly/47NybCK

Audubon CEO Elizabeth Gray, Ph.D. joined governors and other national climate leaders at #ClimateWeekNYC to discuss our Flight Plan to bend the bird curve and restore bird populations while addressing the intertwined climate and biodiversity crises. “When birds are doing well, the planet is doing well. When they do poorly, our planet is doing poorly…Our generation will be defined by what we do on climate. Everybody, no matter who you are, can take action to protect the planet.” Learn more about Climate Week NYC and how you can participate: https://bit.ly/3XFSnln

Ornithologists can’t agree on how to talk about one of the most important processes in a bird’s life: molting—the replacement of feathers. Europeans favor a system they say is simpler and more intuitive, but scientists in the Americas argue that approach has a big problem—it doesn’t work for most birds in the world, especially in the tropics. The debate has carried on for decades, but a recent paper makes the case that looking to the avian tree of life can help settle the issue once and for all. bit.ly/3TCMnsp
