Most of North America’s bird populations are declining
Even red-winged blackbirds, common denizens of wetlands and marshes throughout most of North America, declined by an estimated 92 million individuals .
Shorebirds, a group that is already threatened by extensive damage to their coastal habitat by development, disturbances by people, their vehicles and their pets, and by rising sea levels, were also hard hit with more than a 30% decline .Perhaps most concerning were the steep declines seen for ten introduced invasive species. These are highly adaptable species that thrive under what appears to be the most adverse of conditions.
