Something in the air for young birdwatchers
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.More than 90 countries are this weekend participating in the 1997 World Birdwatch.
Events are taking place at Royal Society for the Protection of Birds sites all over Britain. Yesterday, in Battersea Park, children from the South London Montessori School (pictured right with Neil Anderson of the RSPB) received lessons in birdwatching. They were among 23,000 children from 357 schools who were taking part in Schools Birdwatch yesterday.
