“Sometimes you don’t see these things happening in real time, but this–it was just immediate success.” In honour of #NationalMigratoryBirdDay, check out the work that the Kahnawake Guardians’ are doing to protect Bank Swallows, a species at risk in Canada. These little birds are shoreline nesters, meaning that they burrow into the sandy sides of banks to nest. Due to development, their nesting habitat has been significantly reduced. But thanks to a little ingenuity and the vision of Guardians, a new structure was built to mimic natural sandbanks. Within weeks, hundreds of swallows made it their home! This habitat is vital for their recovery, offering safe nesting and nearby wetlands for foraging. • Shoutout to the Kahnawake Guardians and ALL of the Guardians across Canada who are working to preserve bird habitats, protect threatened species, and support the health and wellbeing of all our relations into the future. #LandNeedsGuardians
