Backed by science and hand-picked by Birds Canada staff, the ten recommendations in this guide share practical actions you can take at home and in your community to help birds thrive.
When we come together, our small actions grow into large impact.
Science tells us where to focus our conservation efforts so we can protect the birds we love.
At Birds Canada, we bring together the passion and dedication of thousands of volunteers and collaborators with the expertise of professional scientists to collect and share data, deepen our understanding of birds, and identify the conservation solutions needed for them to thrive.
Birds Canada exists to protect the birds we love, which allows us to protect all of nature. A world where birds are thriving in healthy habitats is a world where native flora and fauna are flourishing too – a world where people can see, feel, and experience the beauty of nature in balance.
By focusing on birds, we’re protecting what’s vital for the health of people and nature.
