The U.S. State of the Birds is a report developed every 2–3 years by a veritable who’s who of bird-related agencies and organizations. The goal is to provide an update on the status and health of America's birds, to celebrate successes, highlight concerning trends, and inspire solutions for the widespread challenges our feathered friends are facing. The 2025 report builds on past reports but again documents widespread declines across nearly every bird group. While ducks and wetland birds remain above historical levels, demonstrating the success of partner-based conservation, recent drought-induced declines remind us of the importance of not letting off the gas. In this podcast crossover episode, American Birding Podcast host Nate Swick welcomes Mike Brasher of Ducks Unlimited and the Ducks Unlimited Podcast, Amanda Rodewald of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and Bradley Wilkinson of the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies to talk about the report and what birders and hunters can do to support bird science and conservation.
