Grassland Bird Conservation

Grassland bird conservation focuses on protecting and restoring bird species that thrive in open grassy habitats, like fields and prairies. These birds have declining populations due to habitat loss from agriculture, development, and invasive plants. Conservation efforts include maintaining native grasses, creating protected areas, and encouraging sustainable farming practices. By preserving these habitats, we help ensure the survival of species such as the meadowlark and grasshopper sparrow, supporting biodiversity and healthy ecosystems. This work benefits not only birds but also the broader environment and agricultural landscapes.
