Why do we celebrate National Birds Day?

 

Among the most exquisite objects found in nature are birds. They brighten our days with their chirping, and occasionally they are simply too gorgeous and vibrant to only gaze at. They also swoop overhead and bring us joy. Beyond this, though, they play a significant role in the ecology. They provide information about their vitality and health, and it's time we worked together to safeguard them and make sure they had a healthy environment in which to live. Every year, National Birds Day is observed to increase public awareness of the birds that are killed, maimed, or trapped for commercial or recreational purposes. We must endeavor to guarantee that birds and other animals have a better existence because it is against the law and immoral to keep them in captivity.

History: America has observed National Birds Day since 2002. The annual christmas Bird Count falls on this day, which is why it was selected. America celebrates a national holiday on which people work together to gather information about the state and quality of the country's bird population.

Significance and festivities: Because of human-caused problems, the life conditions of birds have significantly declined. Due to factors such as habitat loss, deforestation, climate change, and global warming, birds have lost their homes and consequently their standard of living. The world's largest citizen science initiative, the annual christmas Bird Count, which counts all of the wild birds in the united states of America, coincides with National Birds Day every year. Raising awareness of the actions that need to be taken to guarantee that more birds have better living conditions and that those kept or produced in captivity are released is the greatest approach to commemorate this day.
