Making Connections for Bird Conservation:
Linking States, Provinces & Territories to Important Wintering and Breeding Grounds
In this document we use maps to summarize migratory connections between individual U. S. states, Canadian provinces & territories, and the regions that support the same birds at the other end of migration. With this information in hand, decision-makers can explore partnerships and mechanisms that would help further conservation action outside their borders. The document is composed of several parts – the TEXT of the document; MAPS of migratory connections from each state, province and territory; and the APPENDICES.
