Welcome to the Common Birds in Decline press room. This analysis is the first in a new series of Audubon reports that will continually update the State of the Birds.

The story of Common Birds in Decline will be of interest, not just to bird watchers, but to all who care about what this disturbing trend indicates about the health of the environment we share with birds and other wildlife.

Along with the national findings announced on June 14, 2007, state-by-state information on bird species in decline is available in select areas.
