The "Bird Year" - raising awareness of climate change, by birding!

15-year-old Malkolm Boothroyd and his parents have been cycling "on a year-long, fossil-fuel-free journey (by bikes, boots and boats) in search of birds". This is a truly wonderful adventure, demonstrating that birding can really be a great way to help people learn about climate change.

See more about the effort, the "Bird Day" challenge, and the birds these folks have seen thus far, at:
