Osprey and other climate-threatened bird species

 

Osprey

Ospreys get used to flying solo: Young birds make their first migration on their own, guided by instinct rather than the flight of their parents. 

 

But today, right away, the Osprey needs our help if it’s going to survive the hazards in its path.

 

There are 314 climate-threatened bird species that have been ignored or outright rejected by the current administration and their federal agenda. 

 

Protection is what the Osprey needs as it faces the dire reality of climate change: Throughout North America alone, this distinctive fish hawk could lose nearly 80% of its summer range before the century is out. Will it find enough food? Will rising sea levels decimate its coastal home? Will it adapt to more climate-resilient habitats? We don’t know. And should the administration’s failure to act on climate continue, the answers could be too grim to bear.

But today, right away, the Osprey needs our help if it’s going to survive the hazards in its path.

Osprey, all birds, and the places they need.

• Science to shine a light on the threats that confront birds.
• Education to inspire people to care for the natural world.
• Advocacy to advance conservation aims, and to bring about climate solutions.

…All to protect the birds we love, today and tomorrow.
