Partners for Protection
Migratory birds need protected habitat all along their route, from their wintering sites to their summer breeding sites. To promote the value of international habitat conservation, we're asking birders to team up with partners from other countries to submit sightings of a species from various points along its migration route. We will be making a donation to Birdlife International for each submission for a species with three or more records. Please reach out to birding colleagues and communities worldwide and together we can show that habitat conservation is a global issue, as well as a local one. Sighting records will be posted here.
