Delta Wind Birds
Delta Wind Birds' Mission
Delta Wind Birds' mission is to encourage creation of high-quality stopover wetland habitat for birds on private working lands, to preserve the best natural wetland habitats, and to foster awareness of the value of wetlands for birds and people.
Saving Shorebirds
Nearly half of all North American shorebird species currently face declining populations due to complex causes. These graceful creatures depend on high-quality shallow water and mudflat “stopover” habitat in the Delta region to fuel up during their arduous spring and fall migrations.
Hope for the Future
Through incentive programs and scientific research, Delta Wind Birds helps create temporary “pop-up” wetlands on working farms. These temporary wetlands provide habitat for migrating birds while also conserving soil and reducing water pollution.
