Save an endangered southwest willow flycatcher

Save an endangered southwest willow flycatcher

Organization information

Paso Pacifico

Location: Ventura, United States of America

Summary

Every winter, the willow flycatcher travels from the U.S. to Central America for the season. Five years ago, we began studying the bird's habitat use in Nicaragua. What we learned was surprising! The birds return each year to nearly the same location. These small flycatchers prefer scrubby vegetation near water. Sadly, these are areas most frequently burned or cleared by farmers. Will you help save one willow flycatcher? We will enable farmers to delay clearing and to keep the birds safe.
