Minnesota's Birds of Conservation Concern
.
In Minnesota, 324 bird species regularly inhabit our state. Of these birds, Audubon Minnesota has identified 60 species that face one or more significant challenges: their populations are small and/or declining, they have very limited geographical range, and/or there are threats to their breeding, winter, or migration habitats.
The Audubon Minnesota Action List identifies these 60 species, their conservation status, and reasons for concern. By identifying those birds needing urgent help in Minnesota, conservation efforts can be prioritized. Many of these birds are also on National Audubon’s nationwide Watch List, which comprises 217 species that are in the greatest need of immediate conservation help.
