Our listeners will receive information on how fires can impact bird species. You will hear a story of a little bird living in a forest who gets displaced by a spreading wildfire and the struggles he faced from being displaced such as flying a long distance to find a new place to call home and adjusting to new food sources and environmental factors. The story does come to a happy ending when he is able to return to his old home and sees how the land and resources have been drastically improved from before the fire. This teaches our listeners that fires are not only bad to habitats since they can clean the land by ridding it of invasive plant species. This, in turn, allows for naturally occurring species to thrive and produce more resources for the wildlife there, like birds!
