Help Us Protect Birds This Summer!

Dear Mike,

As the summer sun rises, a dedicated group of field staff is already hard at work. Each summer, Birds Canada welcomes many new and returning field technicians who are passionate about one goal: helping birds.

These incredible individuals often start their days before dawn, navigating challenging terrain, battling insects, and enduring unpredictable weather. They do this to collect essential data on bird populations, with a special focus on endangered and threatened species. This invaluable research is a key element of our conservation efforts.

Your support is also key to ensuring this work to help birds is possible throughout the summer!

Here are a few examples of the projects your gift will support:

In the depths of the Christmas Mountains in northern New Brunswick, we’re seeking out some of the most elusive and threatened songbirds, the Bicknell’s Thrush.
In Newfoundland and Ontario, staff and volunteers are surveying every corner of the province for our two active Breeding Bird Atlases, crucial for understanding changes in bird populations.
On the prairies, we are working to help grassland birds, a group experiencing steeper declines than most others due to habitat loss and changes in land use.
In British Columbia, we’re visiting remote coastal islands to detect returning seabirds responding to island restoration though the removal of invasive mammals.

The dedication and hard work of our field staff are essential to planning and implementing effective conservation actions and policies. The data they gather informs everything from local conservation initiatives to large-scale policies, helping to prevent the loss of species at risk.

However, we do not do this alone. Your support is crucial. By donating to Birds Canada now, you will help support these important projects and address the greatest needs of birds. Your generosity will ensure that our field teams have the resources they need to continue their vital work and that Birds Canada can respond to emerging challenges in bird conservation.

Please make your caring donation today!

Sincerely,

Kate Dalgleish
Director of Annual Giving

P.S. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Together, we can ensure that future generations will be able to enjoy the beauty and song of Canada’s diverse bird species.
