Saturday is World Migratory Bird Day. Here, a pair of great white pelicans soars through the sky. Like all migratory species, white pelicans know no borders. Their yearly migrations span Africa, Europe and Asia. At different points throughout the year, flocks can be found in places as far removed as Tanzania, Greece, Kazakhstan and India. Birds take some of the longest journeys of any animal, facing many dangers along the way. From plastic pollution to habitat loss and the impacts of the climate crisis, migrating birds are increasingly under threat from human activity. By taking #ClimateAction we can protect migrating species and their global habitats. Tell us about your favourite bird in the comments! 📷: UNEP-AEWA / Sergey Dereliev #GlobalGoals #WorldMigratoryBirdDay
