Did you know ~5 billion birds migrate south from the #Boreal each year to locations across the western hemisphere?
Did you know you can play a role in protecting migratory birds by observing and recording what you see in nature? #WorldMigratoryBirdDay audubon.org/community-scienc…
It's fascinating to think about how birds provide connections between two places so far apart - like the #BorealForest in Canada and @CorkscrewSwamp.

Audubon's scientists and conservation experts are joining thousands of others for #ClimateWeek in New York City to lift up solutions for our warming planet. We're proud to play our part and hope birds can help inspire all.
Wetland habitats that migratory shorebirds rely on are disappearing. They need these places to rest and refuel as they travel from S. America to the Boreal. In Texas, private landowners are trying to fill the gap.

I love this post on one of the #Boreal's tiniest treasures. Blueberries! They are an important food resource for birds, other wildlife, and people. Thanks @BorealConserve

Water in the Boreal Forest does not stop at the edge of a lake, property line or development site. It moves through wetlands, peatlands, soil and groundwater.
Protecting a river or lake means protecting the lands and waters connected to it.
Dene K’éh Kusān is B.C.’s largest intact piece of wilderness providing breeding habitat to Lesser Yellowlegs, Golden-crowned Sparrow, and Common Nighthawk. And you can help ensure it is protected for birds and people but you have to act now! audubon.org/canada/news/rare…
Learn more about Dene K’éh Kusãn and the Indigenous led proposal seeking to establish a massive new protected area (over 30,000 square kilometers) in northern B.C. yukon-news.com/2026/07/24/in…
@audubonCAN team is at the #InuitCircumpolarCouncil (ICC) General Assembly happening now in Iqaluit, Canada. @Bird_Wells #ICCGA2026
Check out this very cool story map about the many birds of the Kaska Ancestral Lands, including their habitats, migration, and the work happening to protect and conserve these lands. denakayeh.com/story-map-3-bi…
According to Lynx, "The wild is our common ground. It's up to all of us to leave it stronger and wilder than we found it." We agree! Watch the video to learn more about the biggest and most wild place in B.C.: Dene Kʼéh Kusān.

Nearly all wild Whooping Cranes rely on Boreal Forest wetlands to breed. Once down to about 20 birds, they’ve rebounded to nearly 600. Protecting the Boreal Forest helps protect the habitat behind this recovery.

So glad to hear that this vitally important habitat for Whooping Cranes in Wood Buffalo National Park was saved from serious damage. 🔥cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.7…

What happens when wetlands start to dry out? Research on Alaska’s declining Hudsonian Godwit shows how changing water levels can affect nesting success, and why conserving healthy Boreal Forest wetlands matters. tinyurl.com/mtszh82h
Have you been tracking Cholao's journey from Colombia to the #Boreal in Canada? We have! audubon.org/news/cholao-amaz…
Congratulations to the Sayisi Dene First Nation! thenarwhal.ca/sayisi-dene-se…
Caspian Terns are just one example of birds that most birders would not think of as “Boreal Birds”, and there are many others. Find out more about these seabirds of the #Boreal in this fun piece. audubon.org/canada/news/seab…
