For those of you that follow my blog that may not be avid followers of other birding blogs:
Click here to see the State of the Birds Report that just came out.
Why is this important? Birds are indicators of the health of our environment. Information about the declines of the numbers of birds around us, and especially the numbers of endangered species, should be setting off all kinds of alarms in our collective conscious. The site is very user-friendly, and really worth exploring, so please take a few minutes and check it out.
Also, the latest "I and the Bird" has been posted by Rob Fergus from the Birdchaser blog, and he has done a great job of making it especially fun and interesting this go-around.
