Right now, one of the largest migrations on earth is happening right outside your window—between 1 and 3 billion birds are flying across the continent to breed, nest and raise their young in the Boreal Forest. And if you know what to look for, you’ll see a lot more than you can imagine. Follow along with Jeff Wells from the National Audubon Society for tips on finding one of these migratory songbirds in your backyard! | Boreal Conservation

This World Migratory Bird day is a great opportunity to not only learn more about the migratory birds flying overhead, but also about some of the research behind how we understand bird populations. By capturing the sounds of birds across the boreal — what kind they are, how many there are, and where they are — it not only helps us learn more about bird populations, it also helps us learn about how to conserve bird habitat across the country. | Boreal Conservation
