Here's a great win for birds in an unlikely setting: a new community reserve in Chile was just created to protect a breeding site for Markham's Storm-Petrels. This *sea*bird nests in a desert habitat so desolate that it resembles Mars! Read more: abcbirds.org/news/markhams-s…

We are on the front cover of Science! Our new paper shows how much of the Amazon has already been affected by human disturbances (climate change, fire, logging and edge effects) and its social, economical and ecological impacts 👇
The Amazon rainforest is one of the most vital major ecosystems on Earth—but it is under threat. In this issue of Science, researchers underscore the rapid and profound changes occurring in the Amazon resulting from ever-increasing human activity. scim.ag/1iX

A sky full of #Swallows! What a spectacle! 😍 I’ve NEVER seen this many at one time. Surrounded by 100’s of Barn Swallows and Pallid Swifts this evening on the banks of the #Nile at sunset. All catching insects before going to roost. Just breathtaking… #Egypt 🇪🇬 – at Luxor, Egypt

We depend on terrestrial native vegetation for biodiversity conservation, water quality, soil maintenance and carbon regulation. Here we approximate how much of it we need to keep, if it is to deliver all we ask of it: conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.c… led by @J_Simmonds_AUS

🌳 Forests are by far the most important habitat for birds. 🦜 They support 77% of all species and are where most threatened #birds are found. ❤️ They are also one of the world’s greatest hopes – for tackling climate change, for biodiversity, for our livelihoods, for us.
