Lecture - State of New Hampshire’s Birds
Overview
Lecture by Dr. Pam Hunt, PhD, Senior Biologist of Avian Conservation at New Hampshire Audubon
In the last 50 years, scientists estimate that North America has lost roughly 3 billion birds, meaning that there are only
three quarters as many birds around as there used to be. New Hampshire Audubon has been tracking bird populations
for almost as long, and in our “State of the Birds” report we present a summary of how birds are doing here in the
Granite State.Almost 300 species occur regularly here, and this report outlines general population trends, major threats
facing birds and their habitats, and some of the conservation strategies that might help them recover. The bad news is
that birds are declining here as well. The good news is that there are things we can do about it.
