Description

In the series premier, we head to a summer home for seabirds — a place where kittiwakes, murres, auklets, and puffins gather by the thousands. Gerrit Vyn, a conservation media producer, describes the scene as "a cauldron of raucous bird sound." Scientists and Aleut locals share how the birds are faring in a changing climate, and we explore importance of seabirds in island traditions.Full transcript available at BirdNote.org.  Additional Resources:  Get involved in seabird conservationLearn more about the Aleut people in AlaskaCheck out the Seabird Youth NetworkVisit the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife RefugeGet to know Gerrit Vyn and his commitment to conservationBirdNote is an independent nonprofit media production company.
