Transforming the places where people live and work into habitats where birds thrive.
Bird City helps birds by:
- Restoring, protecting and improving bird habitat
- Reducing threats such as window collisions, toxins and harmful human activities, often due to a lack of understanding of birds’ needs
- Engaging people in learning about, enjoying and helping birds thrive
