Bird Buddy is announcing that, to mark International Day of Climate Action 2024, it has become an official partner to he National Audubon Society, one of the leading organizations dedicated to bird conservation. This collaboration aims to amplify awareness and action around bird conservation, while expanding the bird feeding and watching experience to millions across the Americas.
Commenting on this new partnership, Franci Zidar, CEO, Bird Buddy, said:
“There are over 96 million bird watching enthusiasts in the States alone, making it one of the most popular outdoor pastimes. Working together with the National Audubon Society, we hope to accelerate this growth, and strengthen the connections with nature and the wildlife around us. Sightings data on our feeder network could contribute insight into bird migratory patterns and other behaviors, further strengthening Audubon’s vital conservation science. We are excited to see what further positive impact we can have working with Audubon in bird conservation.”
“Bird Buddy shares our passion for connecting people with nature and exploring how innovation and education can help advance bird conservation. Audubon’s science shows that some of the birds that visit our feeders are threatened by climate change, but there are actions we can take to protect them,” added Chad Wilsey, chief scientist for the National Audubon Society. “The more that people can connect with the birds they see every day, the more they can feel inspired to solve the climate challenges we all face.”
Audubon’s Survival by Degrees report shows that two-thirds of North American birds are at risk of extinction due to climate change. To celebrate the launch of this partnership, Bird Buddy and Audubon will introduce a series of awareness campaigns focused on bird conservation and climate action, the details of which will be announced in the coming weeks.
