SUMMARY:The Return of the Oystercatcher: Saving Birds to Save the Planet (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:(VA) (Northern VA Bird Alliance) \nAt a time when the news for birds – for the planet – has rarely seemed more grim\, there is reason for hope. We’ve restored faltering bird populations in the past\, bringing back once nearly extinct raptors and waterfowl. And despite the odds today\, all around the world\, people are actually reviving bird populations\, providing a roadmap for wider recovery. In his newest book\, The Return of the Oystercatcher: Saving Birds to Save the Planet\, best-selling author and researcher Scott Weidensaul shows why we should never underestimate the resiliency of birds\, and why creating a world that works for birds will work for everything\, including us.  This is a dose of optimism we all need.
