Key Sites

Migratory birds depend on a limited number of ecologically critical sites to complete their annual life cycle. Degradation or loss of any one of these sites can have flyway-scale consequences. A connected network of key sites is essential to maintain ecological connectivity, support species recovery, and ensure long-term resilience of migratory bird populations in the CAF.
