10,000 Birds Conservation Club

One of the recurrent eruptions among North American birders is whether birding has any necessary connection–and whether it should have any connection–to conservation work. The answer seems perfectly obvious to me, given that we won’t have anything to look at if we don’t do something to keep birds and their habitats safe.

My friends at 10,000 Birds have a new project that makes the point forcefully and effectively. Join the new Conservation Club and help save habitats around the world. And if you don’t believe that virtue is its own reward, you can win some fine prizes indeed.

Do something for the birds.
