The Tricolored Blackbird is a near endemic of California and a bird species of conservation concern. It has been declining throughout its range due to habitat loss of wetlands, converstion of habitat to agriculture, development, shooting, and poisoning. Much study and effort has gone in to protecting the species throughout its range.
PRBO is a member of the Tricolored Blackbird Working Group and has been a key partner in efforts to better understand their conservation needs in California.
