This Aussie Photographer Is Working To Help Birds Displaced by Australian Bushfires - and You Can Too
It’s been a devastating month for the east coast of Australia. Bushfires fueled by wind and long-term drought conditions have spread across Queensland and New South Wales — the latter losing at least 2,400,000 acres so far this year, according to The Guardian.
The latest Climate Council report notes that the bushfires, which are part of the continent’s ecology, have become more frequent and more severe. The results are poor air quality, property damage, and the loss of human life. But the fires aren’t just impacting the people of Australia — animals are being chased from their homes, and that’s something Leila Jeffreys, an Australian bird photographer and advocate, has dedicated her work to.
