Flying Together for a Greener Georgi

How birds can unite us for a better future
Everyone has a story about birds. Talking about birds is com
mon ground, and ultimately, birds can unite us because where birds thrive,
people thrive. We’ll discuss ways that Georgia’s birds can unite us in our
businesses and in our communities. Nikki will reveal some of the challenges
that birds face in Georgia, and discuss the surprising ways we can all par
ticipate in conservation actions that benefit birds, wildlife, and people.<
