Wild Birds Wallpaper Biography
The wild bird population in the United States is dropping each year, especially migratory birds that winter over in Latin America and the Caribbean. Over 225 species, many of our most famous and beautiful birds, such as our hummingbirds (the tiniest birds in the world), and songbirds such as warblers, thrushes, tanagers; hawks, owls, and more, nest with us in the United States and Canada in Spring and Summer but then must fly South to Mexico and beyond to survive our Winter season with its loss of food -- insects, fruit, berries, nectar. (These are birds that cannot subsist on birdseed as our wintering birds do.)
Many of our migrating jewels are birds we consider “ours” for historical and emotional reasons. The Baltimore Oriole, the Ruby-Throated Hummingbird (the only one of 13-15 species in significant numbers East of the Mississippi River; now recovering due to public attention), the Scarlet Tanager, the Cerulean Warbler, the American Redstart, the Bobolink and Wood Thrush, and hundreds of others. They could easily go the way of the American Passenger Pigeon within the new century, without your attention and help.
