Bird Studies Canada is excited to announce the launch of the Saskatchewan Breeding Bird Atlas website. At this stage, the site contains a simple overview, maps, and manuals, but be sure to bookmark it and check for updates in the coming weeks. Registration is now open for the project, so get involved today!
The Saskatchewan Breeding Bird Atlas is the result of a partnership between Bird Studies Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment, the Nature Conservancy of Canada, Nature Saskatchewan, and the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation. Other funders and partners are being sought for this ambitious project, which will be the largest Citizen Science volunteer effort ever conducted in Saskatchewan. This tool for bird conservation will map species distributions, identifying hotspots of avian biodiversity, and will help to determine the status of breeding birds in the province.
