It's #NationalBirdDay! Birds are essential to forest ecosystems. They disseminate seeds, aid in decomposing and help regulate insect populations. Large predatory birds such as this great-horned owl also help control small-mammal populations. 🦉🌲

Many North American migratory birds are shrinking in size as temperatures have warmed over the past 40 years, according to new research. The study is the first to identify a direct link between cognition and animal response to human-made climate change. birdwatchingdaily.com/news/science/s…

Happy #MonarchMonday! Do you know how to tell the difference between male and female monarchs? The easiest way to spot the difference is male monarchs have two black dots in the center of their hind wings. These “dots” are scent glands that help males attract female mates.
