Conservation helps preserve ecological function by maintaining natural diversity. For many birds, habitat loss is accelerating population declines. We can work together to conserve these habitats if we understand their role in each bird’s lifecycle. For the Golden-winged Warbler and others, this means preserving a mosaic of forest growth stages throughout their range.
