News & Events

There’s always something going on at San Diego Bird Alliance! Check out our events calendar below, as well as our most recent blog posts in the Newsroom.

San Diego Bird Alliance has been awarded a $5,000 grant from the San Diego Regional Fire Foundation (Fire Foundation) as part of its 2025 Project SAFE grant program.

The Least Bell’s Vireo was once on the brink of extinction. This tenacious bird has since made a remarkable comeback, but its survival remains closely tied to the legal protections granted by the Endangered Species Act.

At less than nine inches from beak to tail feather, the California Least Tern is the smallest species of tern. They also have the unfortunate distinction of being one of the first species officially listed under the Endangered Species Act in 1973.

Bald Eagles are one of the nation’s great recovery stories, and the Endangered Species Act quickly demonstrated its value in helping to facilitate the bird’s survival.

To celebrate Endangered Species Day on May 16, we are spotlighting our most elusive and endangered bird species, the Light-footed Ridgway’s Rail.

On Earth Day, April 22, 2025, the San Diego City Council unanimously voted to adopt native Blue-eyed Grass as the new, official city flower!

Listed as threatened under the ESA, the Western Snowy Plover continues to rely heavily on the legal safeguards and habitat protections the Act ensures. Without them, this tiny bird’s survival would be even more precarious.
