The latest edition of the #PBSNews show Horizons has an excellent piece on a science study published in Nature last month that found that over half of migratory birds globally are now in decline. Most of the show is a thoughtful interview with the lead author of that research, Peter Marra.
The interview is quite sobering, although I appreciate Peter's hopeful response that birds have rebounded from stupid things we've done before (over-hunting of egrets and herons for feathers for hats, and widespread use of DDT insecticides on farms).
Watch to the end for information on another recent science study showing that bird watching is good for our brains. 😀
I've also put a link below to an article on #TheConversation that Peter wrote with a co-author about their migratory bird research.
