Where Are the Birds?

On June 14, the National Audubon Society announced research findings that indicate significant declines in common North American birds over the past four decades. Declines range from 82% for the Northern Bobwhite to 54% for the Ruffed Grouse.

Audubon provides a list of the top 20 birds in decline. They have also posted their technical report and an Audubon Magazine article on the findings.
