Saving the Pacific Flyway: California's Solutions to Sustain Great Migra...


Eight million birds migrate along the Pacific Flyway each year, but without adequate wintering habitat in California, the Pacific Flyway would quickly collapse. 95 percent of the wetlands they depend on are gone. These birds now depend on farms for their habitat and survival. Our last hope for saving the Pacific Flyway is to work with farmers. The Nature Conservancy and its partners are working with farmers in California to manage their lands to provide critical habitat for migratory birds and keep their working farms in production. We can have both farms and birds. Helping farmers be good stewards of their lands and water helps them keep their farms in production.
