    The Greatest Threat Our Birds Face Today

    Read about Audubon’s landmark study showing the severe impacts of climate change on birds.

    Energy

    Energy

    In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on alternative fuel sources. Audubon North Carolina applauds this focus on conservation and reducing the overall carbon footprint. 

    Biomass

    Biomass

    Woody biomass utilization is deriving energy from the trees and woody plants, including limbs, needles and other woody parts grown in a forest that are the by-products of forest management. 

    Wind Power
    Advocacy

    Wind Power

    Audubon North Carolina strongly supports properly sited wind power as a renewable energy source that helps reduce the threats posed to birds and people by climate change.

    Priority Birds

    Brown Pelican

    Least Tern
    Priority Birds

    Least Tern

    Colloquially known as the “little striker” for its headlong dives in pursuit of fish, the Least Tern is, as its name suggests, North America’s smallest tern.

    Black Skimmer
    Priority Birds

    Black Skimmer

    Black Skimmers are named for their unique foraging behavior: Using their brightly colored bill, they skim the surface of the water, and when they come into contact with prey—usually small fish—they snap that bill closed. 

    White Ibis
    Priority Birds

    White Ibis

    White Ibis may be seen foraging on lawns or neighborhood ponds, especially in August after nesting season concludes, but marshes, swamps and other wetlands are their native habitat.
