Your support helps give the birds you love a more hopeful future. Here are just some of the ways that birds are better off because of support from friends like you.

• In 2022, Albuquerque residents witnessed the drying of the federally endangered Rio Grande River, causing widespread concern over its well-being, water supply, and habitat for birds. Birds like the Snowy Egret and Belted Kingfisher utilize the Rio Grande corridor and rely on a flowing river. Alongside partners, in 2023 we brought 580 acre-feet (189,000,000 gallons) of water leased from local municipalities to help keep this key habitat alive.
• Research shows that building collisions can kill up to 1 billion birds each year in the U.S. alone. Thanks to generous people like you, momentum is growing to reduce bird-building collisions in cities and states across the country. Read on for highlights of our latest efforts to make buildings and night skies safer for birds.
• In 2023, our Great Lakes team alongside the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and partners at Detroit Zoo and University of Minnesota released four federally endangered Great Lakes Piping Plover chicks at the Cat Island Restoration Site in Lower Green Bay. This was the first year the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released captive Great Lakes Piping Plovers outside of the state of Michigan—the population’s stronghold—and the first time in the state of Wisconsin. Learn more about the importance of collaborative conservation like this and how these partnerships are essential in moving a species toward recovery.

These are just a few examples of how you’re helping to create change. At a time when birds are in crisis, wins like these mean even more. We have the power to bring them about only because we have friends like you.

Thank you once again for all you do for birds, and for the commitment you’ve made to protect them, today and tomorrow.Bald Eagle. Photo: James Shuler/Audubon Photography AwardsCONNECT WITH USDONATE ADVOCATE GET TEXT UPDATES National Audubon Society
