BirdLife International: State of the World's Birds [pdf]

Concerns about the world's biodiversity are not new, but the BirdLife
International organization has taken on an important challenge by
documenting the state of the world's birds via the important research
papers featured on this site. The news they offer is not terribly
encouraging, but these documents will be important tools for anyone
interested in these pressing issues. The primary work here is divided
into four sections that includes an introduction, along with three
additional sections that cover why birds are declining, the current
state of information about bird populations, and what can be done to
improve the status of birds around the world. Some visitors may also
wish to utilize the "How to use this site" area if they are experiencing
difficulty navigating the various features here. The site is rounded out
by two very impressive reports from 2004 and 2008 on the state of the
world's birds. Both reports are available in English and French, and the
2008 report is also available in Spanish.
