The migration of birds is currently peaking in Wisconsin, prompting a focus on avian health and conservation. Ryan Brady, a member of the Save Our Songbirds initiative, emphasizes the importance of this campaign.

Over the past 50 years, North America has seen a dramatic decline in bird populations, with approximately one in three birds lost. The Save Our Songbirds campaign aims to raise awareness and suggest simple actions that can help.

“Adding native plants around our homes can support local bird populations,” Brady suggested. “Planting trees and shrubs native to Wisconsin can provide essential food sources for birds.”

Brady pointed out that millions of birds die each year from colliding with windows. “We can reduce window reflectivity with simple actions,” he added. “This can save countless birds, including those that frequent our neighborhoods.”
