    ABC is helping grassland birds bounce back by working with our regional Migratory Bird Joint Venture partners and hundreds of private landowners. In recent years, we have enhanced management on more than 100,000 grassland acres from North Dakota to Mexico. https://abcbirds.org/blog/declining-grassland-birds/ https://twitter.com/ABCbirds/status/1629973537132781569/video/1 https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1629973334208180228/pu/vid/1280x720/WeIohznYrZ3TfzIc.mp4?tag=12 View the full article

    "After we connect with the outdoors...it's easy to see Earth's thin skin as a woven fabric. Looking closer, we can see grasslands and other imperiled ecosystems as frayed patches and declining species as weakened strands. ...these things need our care." https://abcbirds.org/blog/farm-bill View the full article

    The species’ common name, Lark Bunting, is a serious misnomer: After all, this bird is neither a lark nor a bunting. So, what is it then?

    Thick-billed Longspurs breed in native shortgrass prairie along the U.S.-Canada border, and in some cases, they benefit from grazing, which can create the sort of short, sparse vegetation they prefer.

    The bold black-and-white plumage of breeding male Lark Buntings sets these members of the sparrow family apart from most other grassland songbirds. They breed in grassland and shrub steppe habitat in the high plains of central North America.

    Although part of a family associated with coastal areas, Mountain Plovers live far from the water. They breed in dry areas of the western Great Plains, where they share space with prairie dogs that help maintain the sparsely vegetated habitat they rely on. https://abcbirds.org/blog/declining-grassland-birds/ https://twitter.com/ABCbirds/status/1627709877048037376/video/1 https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1627709692825804801/pu/vid/1280x720/uF3o77oJCvKQfh-L.mp4?tag=12 View the full article

    Are you taking part in the Great Backyard Bird Count (#GBBC)? The count is happening now around the globe! How many species have you recorded?

    With the Great Backyard Bird Count this weekend, we're wondering if you ever consider the birds in your backyard "your" birds? If so, you aren't alone. Have you ever thought about the ranges of those species, though? Or where they migrate to? https://abcbirds.org/blog21/widespread-songbirds/ https://twitter.com/ABCbirds/status/1627090557100232718/video/1 https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1627090357501722624/pu/vid/1280x720/IRhohPquFep6LdZY.mp4?tag=12 View the full article

    Studies show that as grasslands have disappeared, birds have as well. Since 1970, more than half of all grassland birds have been lost. For birds that historically relied on tallgrass prairie, the situation is even more dire.

    Like other winter finch species, the Evening Grosbeak is only an intermittent visitor to backyard feeders. In many years, it does not appear in some regions at all. What accounts for these irregular winter wanderings?

    Conservation measures written into previous Farm Bills temporarily reversed population declines in grassland species like the Bobolink. @ABCbirds has recommendations to build on that past success and help make this year's bill a game-changer. https://abcbirds.org/news/the-farm-bill-helps-birds/ https://twitter.com/ABCbirds/status/1625972118897803264/photo/1 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FpCc5ygXoAYarjC.jpg:large View the full article
