Hosts Chris and Angie combine an intriguing exploration of the Arctic Tern's incredible migration with an important discussion on bird conservation. The bird's record-breaking journey, its lifestyle, breeding habits, and navigation mechanisms are examined, along with insights from a research project using geolocators to track these migrations. Hosts Chris and Angie also emphasize the bird's crucial role in ecosystems and environmental signals. The importance of Audubon.org, a global bird conservation organization, is also highlighted, which tracks species such as the Arctic Tern and has instrumental in recovering species like the interior least tern. Conservation efforts and their successes are underscored amidst concerns over significant global bird population declines. Lastly, audience participation in citizen science is encouraged through birdwatching and data collection apps like eBird and Merlin Bird ID.
