The section of the Appalachians threatened by mountaintop removal mining represents the southernmost breeding range for many bird species. It’s also prime breeding habitat for Cerulean Warblers, which are declining partly because of their forests are being destroyed along with the mountains. So it is really important for birders to get involved with this issue.
